Off the line, the Duster Hybrid 140 hits 100 km/h in 9.99 s versus 10.95 s for the 2008 PureTech 110. At this point, the Duster Hybrid 140 leads by 0.96 s and sits roughly 14 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Duster Hybrid 140 is doing 110 km/h against 106 km/h for the 2008 PureTech 110. The gap is 0.57 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Duster Hybrid 140 crosses the line in 17.37 s versus 18.14 s. The 0.77 s gap represents roughly 28 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Duster Hybrid 140 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 152 km/h versus 147 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Duster Hybrid 140 finishes in 31.36 s versus 32.49 s, with a 1.13 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (191 km/h), the 2008 PureTech 110 never recovers its launch deficit.
Electronically capped at 170 km/h, the Duster Hybrid 140 never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.89 kg/hp vs 10.45 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 17.74 seconds. The 0.96 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Duster Hybrid 140 wins (9,99 s vs 10,95 s).
Duster Hybrid 140 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 9,99 seconds (calibrated simulation).
