2021 Dodge Durango Review

2021 Dodge Durango Review


The 2021 Dodge Durango is described as a family hauler SUV for muscle car people, and it lives up to that description. It even has a pulse-pounding V8 engine at the top of the lineup and a brand-new trim level, while still maintaining all the power, comfort, and convenience features that make it one of Dodge’s flagship vehicles.

Let’s check out a review of the 2021 Dodge Durango and learn why people in Collierville, Memphis, and Germantown, TN, head to Collierville Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram to test drive this powerful SUV.

What’s New with the 2021 Dodge Durango?

New this year to the Durango lineup is an aggressive design scheme for the exterior, an upgraded cabin with luxury touches and new technology offerings, and a brand-new trim level. This top-level trim is the SRT Hellcat and it packs a wallop, using the 6.2-liter engine from the Charger and Challenger models which delivers a massive 710 horsepower and pumps out an impressive 645 lb-ft of torque.

Power and Performance Overview

The engine lineup is impressive overall in the Durango. Even if you don’t go for the Hellcat trim level, you get a 3.6-liter V6 at the base level, which still gives you 295 horsepower and can generate 260 lb-ft torque. Other engine options include two additional V8 engines: a 5.7-liter and a 6.4-liter. These generate 360 horsepower with 390 lb-ft torque and 475 horsepower with 470 lb-ft torque, respectively.

When it comes to towing and hauling, the Durango can hang. Its capabilities include:

  • maximum towing capacity of 8,700 pounds
  • a Class IV trailer hitch and integrated brake control for the trailer
  • maximum payload of 1,350 pounds
  • maximum cargo space of 85.1 cubic feet, or 17.2 cubic feet when the rear seats are up

Finally, it’s built for slick roads and all-terrain trails with available all-wheel drive. When you combine that with the engine power, this is an SUV that can haul just about anything, almost anywhere.

Outstanding Infotainment Options

The Durango wouldn’t be a family hauler SUV if it didn’t also offer solid technology for infotainment. The new infotainment system can be had in either an 8.4-inch or 10.1-inch touchscreen interface and comes with wireless Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® functionality.

The base system comes with six speakers but can be upgraded to a Harman Kardon® audio system with a whopping 19 speakers.

Safety Features

The list of available safety features is just as impressive. These include options like:

  • adaptive cruise control
  • front crash warning with emergency automatic braking
  • lane departure warning
  • automatic windshield wipers
  • parking sensors

It got a top “Good” rating from the IIHS and scored a 5-Star Overall Safety Rating from NHTSA.
