ALNY John's Durango
John Gaston, 12/29/2016
My previous review (below) was very positive. If anything, I'd say it's even better after 14,500 miles. The vehicle has performed perfectly and spotlessly. It fits our needs very well; for example, hauling things and pulling our ski boat. The V6 is well more than adequate and tows the 4200 pounds of boat plus trailer easily. We love the vehicle's comfort and features. It's super comfortable on long trips. And now that it's winter having four heated seats plus the heated steering wheel is terrific, as is the ability to start the car via Connect. The touch entry and locking are very convenient. The controls are easy, ergonomic, and straightforward. In short, love the Durango. A great buy! If this isn't the best SUV on the market, I don't know what is. The Durango Citadel AWD we bought easily beats the Honda Pilot and Volvo XC90, which we considered, researched, and drove. The Durango's ride, comfort, technology (driver assist and ease-of-use), quietness, tow capability, space, and value are all better than the other two vehicles. In particular, we found the Pilot's ergonomics to need a fair amount of improvement. We especially like the rear bucket seats and console, along with the ample number and variety of electronic plugs. The car's controls, both front and rear as well as buttons and electronic, are very straightforward and easy to use. Attention to little details and conveniences, such as the handy built-in flashlight in the rear or the tuck-away roof crossbars, is splendid on the Durango.
That thing got a Hemi?
Jim, 1/11/2017
The 2011-2017 Dodge Durango was designed by Daimler-Chrysler and is built on the same chassis as the current Mercedes M-Class sport utility vehicle. Being heavily German by design it rides and handles well but doesn't have the Swiss-Army like interior of a Honda or Chrysler mini-van. The seats are very comfy but the way they fold and stow is just average (we have second row captain's chairs). The front seats are heated and cooled. The Uconnect infotainment system is very intuitive and works better than any infotainment system I've ever seen, having a combination of touch screen, knobs, buttons and voice activation. The system also allows i-phone users to access Siri. The Beats speakers are adequate but not astounding. The RT sits lower than standard Durangos, the suspension is a little firmer and the brakes bigger making this 5000 lb+ vehicle handle extremely well for its' size. Its' weight makes for a great ride on the road and the vehicle is bank-vault tight with no squeaks, rattles or excessive wind noise. The hemi is just plain cool-it's been a long time since I've owned a V-8 and the sound and performance are worth the so so gas mileage. Around town mileage stinks, averaging about 15 mpg if I don't lead foot it but on the highway I've gotten 22mpg thanks to the imperceptible selective cylinder management. The 8 speed ZF trans. is spectacular. The rear shocks are self-leveling and included with the tow package I got (it's rated to tow up to 7200 lbs.). Haven't towed with it yet but plan to. I feel as though I purchased a Mercedes M-Class for Dodge money. In my opinion this SUV is an exceptional value.
WAAAAAAY BETTER THAN EXPECTED!!!
Dev Null, 12/20/2016
We bought a new 2017 Durango AWD RT after having an accident in our trusty Jeep Commander HEMI. I drive a Corvette with 465hp and must say, this thing is a BLAST to drive (Keep sport mode on and "eco" mode off). For a family car, you just can't go wrong. The Commander was nice, but so much improvement in engine/transmission/electronics over the past 6 years means a MUCH smoother, faster, better sounding beast than I could have imagined. I love this truck and am truly happy with it. Highly recommended! PS, the kids love the extra room in the 3rd row over the Commander too. Great work MOPAR.
the perfect fit
James K, 4/27/2017
great vehicle ,great value. My last SUV was a 2014 Honda Pilot . I was in the market for a new good size SUV ,with great towing features and capacity. Dodge Durango was the perfect fit. I use this vehicle to transport cargo and family . This vehicle covers all aspects of my busy lifestyle from camping,towing my boat ,bringing stuff home for my lawn and garden . I couldn't find a better fit for my lifestyle. I am impressed with the design and performance from this vehicle . If you are looking for a vehicle thats not going to put you to sleep The Durango is what you are looking for . I am very satisfied in my choice . I smile every time I get in and start this SUV.

2017 Dodge Durango video

SPEAKER 1: I'm Editor Travis Langness and this is Edmunds Expert Rundown of the 2017 Dodge Durango. The 2017 Dodge Durango is back with just a few minor changes for this year, mostly just trim level stuff. It has a base v-6 and rear wheel drive which is sufficient but not very lively. We recommend upgrading to the V8. It's got impressive acceleration. And also the Durango overall has really good off road capability. It's got good towing capability especially with that optional V8. It's got a comfortable highway ride. It's a pretty heavy vehicle. But actually that heaviness lends to it being good on the highway. It feels pretty hunkered down, nice and quiet. It does have some pretty basic interior materials quality. It's not the top of the class. But it does have a really spacious third row and a big friendly touch screen in the front, UConnect touch screen that we're really big fans of. We think it's one of the best in the class. Unfortunately, on the base model, Bluetooth isn't standard. You do have to upgrade to get that which is kind of a weird missing feature for the class. But this is like we said one of the most adult friendly third rows in the class. It definitely is road trip worthy. There's a little bit of limited cargo space behind it in the trunk there. But when you fold down the second and third row, there's a lot of space back there to load all sorts of lumber, tools, whatever you need in the back. Up front, we've got that UConnect screen again, super user friendly, easy to learn, and definitely a lot of good controls and buttons, super responsive as well. Bottom line, the 2017 Dodge Durango is rugged, capable, and surprisingly spacious. I would definitely recommend checking it out despite its relative age in the segment. But be sure to look at the CX 9 from Mazda, the Toyota 4Runner, and also the Chevy Tahoe. For more Edmunds Expert Rundowns, click the link to subscribe.

More about the 2017 Dodge Durango

You won't mistake the aggressive-looking 2017 Dodge Durango for anything else, but this big seven-seater has more going for it than looks. It's a spacious and capable SUV with available V8 power, giving it the muscle for heavy towing jobs that would otherwise require a full-size truck-based SUV. We like it — not just for its abilities, but for the way it stands out from the crowd.

The Durango has been around for awhile; the current version was launched in 2011 and saw its last makeover in 2014. This year, Dodge has replaced the old midrange Limited model with the sporty-themed GT, and the base model can now be had with five seats as well as the standard seven. Normally we prefer vehicles that have had more recent updates, but we like the Durango just the way it is.

Most Durangos are powered by a 3.6-liter V6 tuned for 290 horsepower (295 in the Citadel model or with the Blacktop package) and 260 pound-feet of torque. But the V6 Durango can be equipped to tow up to 6,200 pounds, significantly more than its rivals. In Edmunds testing, a rear-drive V6-powered Durango made the run to 60 mph in 7.8 seconds, while all-wheel drive increased that to 8.1 seconds — slow times compared to the segment's best and a consequence of the Durango's heavy weight.

Standard on R/T models and optional on Citadel is a big 5.7-liter V8 that produces 360 hp and 390 lb-ft. Like the V6 it gets an eight-speed automatic, but unlike the V6 its optional four-wheel-drive system includes a low-range transfer case for better off-road ability. The V8 can tow up to 7,400 pounds, and you'll need a full-size body-on-frame SUV if you want to match that number.

Unfortunately, the trade-off for the Durango's muscle is fuel economy. The EPA rates the rear-drive V6 Durango at 21 mpg combined (19 city/26 highway), with all-wheel drive cutting 1 mpg from the city and highway figures. The V8 engine drops that figure to 17 mpg combined (14 city/22 highway) with either rear- or four-wheel drive.

But the Durango has no shortage of interior space, and even the third row is suitable for adults, a rarity in this class. We like the roomy backseat, which is easy to access thanks to big doors that open to nearly 90 degrees. The dash design isn't our favorite, but we love the 8.4-inch UConnect infotainment system. We are also fans of the Durango's comfortable ride, but you can feel its heft in the corners.

Dodge sells the Durango in four models. The base SXT has plenty of equipment for families on the go, while the new GT adds attractive styling cues and a more upscale interior. The Citadel offers most of Dodge's available luxury features, while the R/T concentrates on performance with a V8 engine and a stiffer suspension. Let Edmunds help find the perfect 2017 Dodge Durango for you.
