The Dodge Durango SXT Blacktop and Limited Blacktop feature Durango’s standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine and dual exhaust with active intake, paired with the new standard eight-speed automatic transmission and generates an impressive 295 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque, and can tow up to a best-in-class 6,200 pounds. The V-6 powered Durango also features a best-in-class driving range of more than 600 miles on a tank and up to 25 miles per gallon.

The 5.7-liter engine’s Fuel Saver Technology with cylinder-deactivation seamlessly alternates between smooth, high-fuel-economy four-cylinder mode when less power is needed and V-8 mode when more power is in demand. Models with the HEMI V-8 engine achieve up to 23 miles per gallon.
With standard seven-passenger seating and luxurious second-row captain’s chairs available on all models, the seats in the 2014 Dodge Durango can be converted to as many as 50 different configurations.
Families with three or more children will find the Durango’s available captain’s chairs with pass-through especially helpful as two car seats can stay latched into the second row seats, and there’s still easy pass-through for passengers to walk between to get to the third row. The second-row captain’s chairs will also make adults feel like they are riding in first-class, with available Nappa Leather heated bucket seats with individual armrests.
The Durango’s new instrument panel features a redesigned center stack that houses the 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen. The bottom of the center stack houses a new media hub with an SD card slot, USB outlet and auxiliary jacks, as well as a storage bin. The new center console features a new segment-first rotary shifter for the standard eight-speed automatic that adds another level of refinement over the traditional gated automatic shifter. Manual shift functions have moved to paddle shifters on the back of the Durango’s new steering wheel.
