Keep reading to learn more about this incredible SUV.

Sleek New Design

When the Durango first debuted over 20 years ago, Dodge aimed to make a statement with it’s stylish yet brawny design. Two decades later, Dodge stays true to the powerful aura of the Durango but adds some well-received refinement as well.

The 2021 version is a more polished version of its predecessors, with sleek lines and a more aesthetic appearance. But its wide wheelbase and dual front intakes make one thing abundantly clear: this truck means business.

Best In Class Towing

The Durango’s muscle matches its appearance as the 2021 model can pull more weight than any other vehicle in its class. The V6 engine generates enough power to tow an impressive 6,200 pounds. Opting for the V8 however, increases towing capacity to a staggering 8,700 pounds.

If you need to get your boat to the dock or want to pull a trailer on your next family vacation, the 2021 Durango will handle the job and look good doing it.

Impressive Powertrain Options

The 2021 Durango offers a choice of two powertrain options that deliver ample amounts of torque and horsepower. The V6 engine generates 295 horsepower while the V8 ups the juice to 360 horsepower. Both engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission that drives well and shifts gears effortlessly.

Perfect Family Vehicle

While the 2021 Durango looks sportier than previous models and packs an impressive amount of muscle under the hood, it’s still a great family SUV. The Durango’s handling is precise and conquers winding roads with confidence, creating no body roll.

While its rear-wheel-drive adds to its sporty ethos, the smooth transmission changes and sharp braking allow for easy acceleration on highways, and comfortable, sudden stops on busy city streets. Its suspension also does well to absorb bumps on the road.

SRT Hellcat Model

No matter which vehicle they’re reinventing, Dodge always aims to please those who crave mind-blowing power – and this is true with the 2021 Durango. For drivers who love the sound of thunder when they step on the gas, we proudly introduce the SRT Hellcat Model.

The 6.4-liter supercharged HEMI engine of the SRT Hellcat generates an unbelievable 710 Horsepower. It comes equipped with a variety of performance features and is by far the most powerful SUV in its class.

The 2021 Durango is a versatile family SUV that raises the bar and delivers superior comfort, power, and handling. If you want to see why drivers and critics are raving about this incredible vehicle, call Charbonneau Chrysler Center today and book your test drive!
