Dodge Durango: A Family Vehicle with Attitude

The 2016 Dodge Durango is back with more aggressive styling than any other modern SUV. It packs a full-size punch with state-of-the art features that would make any home entertainment system jealous. This is the most technologically advanced SUV in its class.

The Durango offers three rows of seating, a range of 3.6-Liter V6 24-Valve VVT and 5.7-Liter V8 HEMI® MDS VVT engines and a choice of rear-wheel drive or All-wheel drive. Over the years, the Durango has been known for its confident handling and composed, comfortable ride. Inside, the Durango offers an attractive and upscale design, with class-competitive quality and features. The second and third rows offer enough room for most families.

This seven-seater comes with more space than any other vehicle including the best-in-class UConnect info entertainment system. The available Uconnect® 8.4 features a Class-Exclusive 8.4-inch touchscreen, along with available Uconnect Access. A happy backseat makes everyone happy. Pop in an available Blu-ray™ disc for your backseat passengers with the available Class-Exclusive 9-inch dual-screen Blu-ray and DVD Entertainment System with High-Definition Media Interface (if requested).

The Class-Exclusive Seven-inch Driver Information Digital Cluster Display and Uconnect® System, to the Speed Control feature and even your iPhone® mobile device and other compatible smartphones. The Keyless enter “n” go entry as well as the standard steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters give you complete control of the eight-speed automatic transmission.

The Durango features a Class-Exclusive LED racetrack tail lamp that consists of 192 individual LEDs blended to form one seamless ribbon of glowing red light. Projector headlamps with available LED daytime running lamps light up the road like a red carpet. Available auto-leveling technology adjusts the headlamp beams’ aim for slight changes in road surface elevation so you’ll know what’s coming. Available Automatic High-Beam Control Headlamps switch from high- to low-beams and back again when oncoming light is sensed, while available low-beam 3headlamps enhance nighttime visibility.

The Citadel trim adds mostly appearance-based features to the Limited, including larger alloy wheels, dual exhaust (which raises the V6’s output by two horsepower), and Nappa leather upholstery. A power sunroof and navigation are also standard.

The performance-oriented R/T trim comes with a 360-horsepower V8 engine, a sport-tuned suspension, ventilated front seats, and perforated leather upholstery. A major standard feature for the Dodge Durango is the 18” aluminum wheels (with optional 20” wheels), fog lights, optional integrated roof rail crossbars as well as available heated side mirrors.

With over 60 safety and security features, the dodge Durango is a trusted bodyguard that’s always on duty.

Some key features include the adaptive cruise control with stop function, forward collision warning with active brake assist, electronic stability control, optional blind spot monitoring, Parkview ™ Rear-Backup camera and park assist with stop function.
