Most three-row SUVs are engineered to make sensible decisions. The 2026 Dodge Durango certainly knows how to carry a family, tow a trailer, and tackle the daily commute—but it also remembers that driving can be fun. That's what has kept the Durango relevant while many rivals have become increasingly predictable. For families around Terrell who don't want to give up performance in exchange for practicality, few SUVs occupy the same space. Family Utility Without Feeling Ordinary The Durango's three-row cabin seats up to 7 passengers, making it just as comfortable handling weekday school runs as weekend road trips. Fold the rear seats flat and cargo capacity expands to 85.1 cu. ft., leaving ample room for luggage, sports equipment, camping gear, or home improvement supplies. Drivers who regularly face changing Texas weather can choose available all-wheel drive for additional confidence, while properly equipped Durango models tow up to an impressive 8,700 lbs. That level of capability opens the door to larger campers, boats, and enclosed trailers—something few midsize SUVs can match. It's an SUV designed to adapt to family life without asking owners to sacrifice the versatility that made them choose an SUV in the first place. more Performance for Every Kind of Driver The Durango's greatest strength is its remarkably broad range of personalities. The Durango GT begins with a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 producing 295 hp and 260 lbs. ft. of torque, offering smooth, dependable performance for everyday driving. Drivers wanting classic American V8 character can step into the available 5.7L HEMI® V8, which delivers 360 hp and 390 lbs. ft. of torque. Higher-performance models take things much further. The Durango R/T 392 features a naturally aspirated 6.4L HEMI® V8 generating 475 hp and 470 lbs. ft. of torque, combining everyday usability with unmistakable muscle-car character. At the top of the lineup sits the Durango SRT® Hellcat. Its supercharged 6.2L HEMI® V8 produces an astonishing 710 hp and 645 lbs. ft. of torque, launching the SUV from 0-60 mph in as little as 3.5 seconds. It remains the most powerful gasoline-powered SUV Dodge has ever built, a title that says just as much about the brand's philosophy as it does about the numbers. A Cabin That Keeps Pace Performance may grab the headlines, but the Durango's interior is designed for everyday life. The available 10.1-inch Uconnect® 5 touchscreen serves as the centerpiece, offering wireless Apple CarPlay®, wireless Android Auto™, available navigation, Amazon Alexa Built-in, and SiriusXM® with 360L on select models. Available wireless charging, multiple USB ports throughout the cabin, and the available Harman Kardon® Premium Audio System help make long drives every bit as enjoyable as quick trips across town.
