The 2018 Dodge Durango is the go-to large SUV for those in search of a capable and spacious car. It’s a long-serving model in the automaker’s lineup that suits families and people with lots of stuff to haul. Here are three reasons why you should test drive it today.
-
Muscle-Car Performance in an SUV
Muscle cars like the Dodge Challenger or Dodge Charger are fun to drive, and they have loads of power under the hood. The 2018 Dodge Durango takes the power found in a muscle car and combines it with an SUV’s functionality. Among the engine options for this vehicle, there is a 6.4-liter HEMI paired with adaptive suspension and an all-wheel-drive system in the SRT version.
The Dodge Durango produces 475 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. The Citadel trim has a 5.7-liter V-8 engine. The best part about these engines is that they aren’t excessively noisy nor vibrate at low speeds. Only when you hit the gas hard does the engine make its power known. Drivers receive the power that they crave while getting through the most challenging of road conditions.

Towing Power to Swear By
The Dodge Durango can tow. For drivers in the market for a comfortable SUV that hauls the family and a boat or a trailer, this is the SUV to look at. It boasts an impressive 8,700 pound towing capacity for the SRT trim. Other trims like the Citadel trim pull slightly less than this at 7,200 pounds. As one of the few large SUVs with a third row on the market, the Durango also offers over 47 cubic feet of cargo space when the third row isn’t in use. This SUV has plenty of space and power to store and haul everything you need on a road trip or on a day drive.

You’ll Enjoy Driving It
The Durango is also a joy to drive. This is essential for anyone who loves responsive driving but is in serious need of the practical features. Despite the fact that it is a large SUV, the Durango is fun to drive. Drivers can take it out on day-to-day trips to the store or on the highway, and they’ll never miss the fun.
The 2018 Durango is comfortable with the option to add captain’s chairs in the second row and flip-up monitors on the back of the front seats. This alone makes it a very solid family vehicle option. It also comes with the UConnect Infotainment System, which is among the best systems on the market today.
Shopping for an SUV that is both practical and satisfying to drive is a tall order. The 2018 Dodge Durango rises to the challenge with its power, performance, space, and comfort. Dodge proves that performance and practicality can live harmoniously in the Durango for the driver and family alike. Schedule a test drive at Bravo Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Alhambra today!
