“Driving a family SUV doesn’t mean you have to give up enjoying performance. The Durango SRT is America’s most-powerful three-row SUV, with the ability to scare most sports cars at stop lights,” writes Redfern.
The 2019 Durango is powered by a 6.4-liter HEMI V8 engine paired to a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission with SRT. It is rated at 475 horsepower and best-in-class 470 lb-ft of torque, ratings that propel the Durango to be able to achieve the best towing capacity in its class as well, a maximum of 8,700 pounds. Driving performance is superior in the Dodge Durango SRT thanks to Performance-Turned All-Wheel Drive and seven SRT Drive Modes — Street, Sport, Track, Snow, Tow, Valet, and Eco.
The sculpted exterior is beautifully complemented by the well-appointed cabin, which boasts attention-getting features such as the SRT flat-bottom performance steering wheel with SRT paddle shifters.
