2011 Dacia Duster No Limit Specs and Review

The Dacia Duster No Limit is an exceptional, extremely powerful car. It was purpose built by teams from Tork Engineering (design, production, assembly, development) and Sodemo (engine), in association with Renault Sport Technologies, which brought its unique motorsport expertise to the table, as well as the supply of certain components. Dacia will enter the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb – which will take place in Colorado, USA, on June 26 with a purpose-built 850hp prototype, Dacia Duster No Limit. No restrictions on the size or power output of the engine, maximum power or torque, following an early reveal on racing driver Jean-Philippe Dayraut’s website, and there are no restrictions concerning the transmission or the aerodynamic characteristics.

Dacia Duster No Limit comes with the glass-fiber skin (the car weighs 950 kg or 2,094 pounds), the Dacia Duster No Limit features a 3.8-liter V6 engine specially built by Sodemo and based on the Nissan GT-R’s VR 38 DETT powerplant. However, instead of the GT-R’s 530HP, the six-cylinder unit has been tuned to deliver no less than 850 horses at 7,000 rpm and 900 Nm (663.8 lb-ft) of torque at 5,000 rpm. The engine is mated to a sequential six-speed Sadev box specially developed to cope with so much power, while at the same time ensuring quick, precise gearshifts.
