Dodge, North America’s performance brand, is infusing its supercharged SRT Hellcat DNA into the Durango lineup for 2021. Powered by the supercharged 6.2-litre HEMI® Hellcat V-8 engine paired with the quick-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission, the Durango now joins the Challenger and Charger in Hellcat form, delivering 710 horsepower and 645 lb.-ft. of torque, giving it the power to go from 0-60 miles per hour (mph) in 3.5 seconds and cover the quarter-mile in 11.5 seconds. The Durango SRT Hellcat runs 1.5 seconds faster than the Durango SRT 392 on a 3.4-kilometre (2.1-mile) road course, equal to 9 car lengths after one lap. Dodge will build the Durango SRT Hellcat for the 2021 model year only. The new Tow N Go Package on the 2021 Durango R/T AWD leverages its 5.7-litre HEMI V-8 engine performance, SRT’s menacing looks, unmatched, best-in-class towing of 3,946 kilograms (8,700 pounds), an improved top speed of 145 mph, Track, Sport, Snow and Tow drive modes and a retuned SRT-performance exhaust with an iconic Dodge exhaust note rumble. The Challenger and Charger muscle car exteriors are reflected in the Durango’s new, aggressive exterior, which features a new front fascia, LED low/high projector headlamps, LED daytime running lamp (DRL) signatures, grille, rear spoiler and wheels.

With all of the updates, the interior feels much wider, high-tech and more refined than the outgoing model.
