Dodge Durango Photo Gallery

Cleaner, less menacing face than most these days.

Are such clean, fluid lines dated or timelessly tasteful?

The performance-oriented R/T has fewer shiny bits. Even the wheels are dark.

Conventional SUV configuration makes for a longer hood, classic proportions.

Longer tail than on the foot-shorter Jeep to fit the third-row seat.

The 2014 gains Dodge's signature "racetrack" LED tail lamp assembly.

Like the exterior, the interior's styling is clean, perhaps to a fault.

Primary surfaces, including the upper part of the instrument panel, have an upscale look and feel.

Controls are among the best for usability, but electronics have been buggy and knobs feel cheap.

Fairly comfortable seat, but could use more contour. For high-grade hides step up to the Citadel.

R/T adds red stitching to the same seat. The Citadel's nappa leather is optional on the R/T.

Second row isn't the widest, but is high and comfortable. Bench standard, these captains optional.

Two-person third row seat also more comfortable than most.

Like most three-row crossovers, there's not enough space for a family's luggage with all seats up.

Ample space with the third-row seat folded, though.

Don't order premium leather or the entertainment system, and front passenger seat would also fold.

V6 engine much more competitive when paired with the new eight-speed automatic.

"Hemi" V8 makes more noise than the V6, but doesn't feel dramatically stronger in typical driving.

An around-view camera system, like Pathfinder's in the pic, would be most welcome in the Durango.

Differs only in detail from the much less expensive Durango R/T.

Still attractive and well-proportioned in its eighth model year, if unfashionably round.

Athletic proportions for a three-row family hauler, thanks to a rear-drive platform and good design.

The shape of the Durango's extended (for a third row) rear end is especially fluid.

Does this look like the interior of a $75,000 vehicle?

Upholstered IP, synth suede pillars and headliner are part of a $1,500 package.

Logically located, easy-to-use controls. But looking a little plain and dated. Driving modes.

SRT driver seat provides plenty of lateral support. But make sure the lumbar bulge fits your back.

Second row comfortably high off the floor.

As third rows go, this one serves adults well.

As in most three-row SUVs, there's not much space for cargo behind the third row.

Folding the third row, which is easily done, nearly triples the available space.

Folding both rows creates a long but relatively narrow cargo floor. 4x8 plywood won't fit flat.

Six years after the SRT engine was first offered in the related Grand Cherokee you can get it here.
