Mind-boggling Power

The Durango offers four high-powered engines. The standard engine is the robust 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. Generating 293 HP and 260 pound-feet of torque, it allows the base Durango to skip to 60 in just 7 seconds while boasting a 6,200-pound towing capacity. If you crave V8 muscle, the second engine is the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 that roars with an astounding 360 HP and 390 lb-ft of torque, resulting in a 0-60 time of 6 seconds and a 7,400-pound towing capacity.

Craving unbridled power? The Durango SRT 392’s 6.4-liter HEMI V8 gives you a taste of the Durango’s full capabilities. Cranking out an incredible 475 HP and 470 lb-ft of torque, this beast launches the Durango to 60 in just 4 seconds while enabling an 8,700-pound towing capacity. The most unadulterated version of the Durango (the SRT Hellcat) uses the supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8, which unleashes a staggering 710 HP and 645 pound-feet of torque, rocketing to 60 in 3 seconds!

Soul-Stirring Performance

Power aside, the Durango is beautifully engineered, equipped with numerous high-performance features that echo the exceptional handling abilities of its much smaller muscle-car siblings. Standard rear-wheel drive provides near-perfect weight distribution, resulting in fantastic balance and stability, making high-speed maneuvers a breeze. Optional all-wheel drive comes in handy in case you go off the beaten path often. Regardless of the situation, the electronic limited-slip differential ensures you never run out of traction.

The rack-and-pinion steering is accurately weighted, resulting in outstanding road feel, while the 8-speed automatic transmission’s seamless shifts only add to the overall smoothness of this machine. The Bilstein active damping suspension reads road conditions, adjusting its shocks automatically to ensure uncompromising comfort and stability, while the Brembo brakes ensure swift and reliable stopping power.

Spacious and Luxurious Cabin

The Durango pampers your family with all kinds of creature comforts to ensure a premium riding experience. With over 140 cubic feet of passenger volume, it can comfortably accommodate up to seven people, making it ideal for larger families, while up to 85 cubic feet of cargo space ensures you can carry as much gear as you need.

Some of the top-shelf amenities it can come with include heated and ventilated seats, a sunroof, leather upholstery, second-row captain’s chairs, an infotainment touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, built-in navigation, a rear-seat entertainment system, and a 19-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.
