The 2024 Dodge Durango continues its reign as a dominant force in its segment, offering a compelling blend of uncompromised utility, advanced technology, class-leading towing, and iconic styling. Leading the charge is the formidable 2024 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, the most powerful SUV on the planet, designed for performance enthusiasts who also need family-friendly capabilities. With a 0-60 mph sprint in just 3.5 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 11.5 seconds, the Hellcat redefines what an SUV can be.
