The 2014 Dodge Durango full-size three-row crossover utility is significantly improved. The Durango has freshened looks, better fuel economy and an expanded array of features. Most important is the new 8-speed automatic transmission, which improves fuel economy and performance.

2014 Dodge Durango Design

New taillights bring the 2014 Durango's rear end in line with the rest of the Dodge family. A more sculpted hood and pronounced fenders give it a muscular look. Each trim level's grille has a different mesh texture or color. A redesigned center control panel is home to the Uconnect multimedia system. More new equipment includes an available dual-screen Blu-ray- and DVD-compatible rear entertainment system. Safety options include a new forward-collision warning and mitigation system. 

Powering the 2014 Dodge Durango

Durango's standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 generates 290 horsepower. The optional 5.7-liter HEMI V8 pumps out 360 horses. Unlike most crossover utility vehicles, the 2014 Dodge Durango offers a choice of rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. Properly equipped 2014 Durango models can tow up to 7400 pounds. A standard capless fuel filler is new this year.

Conclusions

The optional V8 is genuine fun, and its addictive sound is frosting on cake. It can tow more than just about anything in its class, but it's full of the conveniences you never thought of before and now can't do without.
