2017 Dodge Durango Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2018 | The SRT tweaks to the Durango include sport front bucket seats. These seats, with their large bolsters, will hold you in place through curves. Those who actually take the Durango SRT to the track will find that the seat's headrest leaves sufficient space for a helmet. But not everyone will find these seats comfortable. For me, the lumbar bulge felt too large even when minimized. In back, the Durango offers among the most comfortable second and third rows you'll find in any family hauler. It helps--a lot--that both rows are mounted higher off the floor than those in the average crossover. Among SUVs, only the Ford Expedition offers a more comfortable third-row seat. One weakness: the Durango can't hold three people in the second row as well as girthier competitors, and can't hold three people in the third row at all. Of course, opt for the second-row captain's chairs (as most buyers likely will) and the second-row seating will be limited to two people anyway. see full Dodge Durango review |
