Dacia unveils new Bigster mild hybrid G-140 with LPG engine

Dacia has announced the launch of the Bigster mild hybrid G-140, a new bi-fuel petrol and LPG car that can be already ordered. Prices start from EUR 24,990

According to the manufacturer, Bigster provides “all the essentials required by customers in the C-SUV segment in terms of equipment, emphasising comfort and practicality, with a wide range of equipment available depending on the trim level”.

In this new model, Dacia offers a powertrain combining bi-fuel with a 48V mild hybrid system. The mild hybrid system supports the 1.2-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged engine, whether running on petrol or Autogas, during the start-up and acceleration phases, for enhanced driving pleasure and efficiency. The mild hybrid-G 140 engine can operate on either petrol or LPG, with a dedicated tank for each.

Running on Autogas, Bigster mild hybrid-G 140 emits on average 10% less CO2 than an equivalent non-hybrid petrol engine. With two tanks containing a total of 100 litres of fuel (50 litres of petrol and 50 litres of LPG), it has a range of up to 1,450 km. Installed under the boot floor, the LPG tank has no impact on load space. A dashboard switch enables a fast and seamless transition from one fuel type to the other.

“Dacia has sold more than 1 million LPG vehicles since 2010. Dacia is the leader on the European LPG market with a more than 67% share at the end-quarter 2025; almost 40% of the brand’s customers have chosen LPG vehicles, proof of a proven technology, easy to use, economical in operation, and thus meeting the needs of customers,” stated the company in a press release.
