Each engine offers different levels of performance for the Durango, so understanding what each engine offers can help you find the perfect 2023 Durango for you and your lifestyle.

The 3.6-liter V-6 engine is the standard engine in the 2023 Durango. It offers the following performance capabilities:

• HP: 293 at 6,400 revolutions per minute.
• MPG city: 19.
• MPG highway: 26.

• MPG city: 14.
• MPG highway: 22.

While mpg can be an excellent indicator of a vehicle’s performance, some of the best performance in SUVs is their tow weight and cargo hauling capacities. The 2023 Dodge Durango earned best-in-class towing, with an impressive 8,700 pounds maximum towing. This means you can hitch a trailer to the vehicle and continue to expect excellent performance while hauling these heavy loads, such as trailers, boats, and other vehicles. It’s important to remember that towing can decrease the fuel efficiency of a vehicle since companies record this metric without towing.

The 2023 Dodge Durango comes in seven trim levels. These are the SXT, GT, R/T, Citadel, R/T Hemi Orange, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat. Each of these trim levels has its own features while including several standard features:

The SXT is the base version of the Dodge Durango. It comes with the option for 4×2 wheel driving and AWD. It comes with 18-inch tech silver aluminum wheels and the base package of features that every Durango comes with, including basic safety features, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.

The GT is the next trim level. It comes with 20-inch fine silver aluminum wheels and a dual exhaust system. It also has the heated front seats and steering wheel of the SXT trim level. While there aren’t too many extra features, the dual exhaust is more efficient than the single exhaust system, helping clear the engine’s exhaust faster.

Like the GT trim level, the R/T trim level also comes with 20-inch fine silver aluminum wheels and a dual exhaust system for more efficient clearing. It also comes with the next engine level, getting the 5.7-liter V-6, compared to the previous two trim levels, which each come with the 3.6-liter V-6 engine instead.

The Citadel is the next trim level after the R/T. With this trim level, you get 20-inch satin carbon aluminum wheels, the same engine as the R/T, and a Premium Alpine audio system. The interior of the vehicle also comes with a charging pad for smart devices.

The R/T Hemi Orange’s exterior is very different from the other trim levels. First, it has a midnight gray metallic and orange badging. Then, it has a gunmetal and orange hood stripe and 20-inch black noise wheels to reduce road noise. The exterior isn’t the only difference. Inside this trim level, you can get premium Nappa leather and foldable captain chairs in the second row of seats, and a premium PUR-wrapped instrument panel.

The next to last trim level is the SRT 392 trim level. It comes with a set of Brembo six-piston, high-performance brakes, an active dampening suspension system, and second-row captain chairs and paddle shifters on the steering column. This level of the 2023 Durango also comes with blind spot monitoring and the best-in-class towing features of the Durango.

The final trim level of the 2023 Dodge Durango is the SRT Hellcat. The Hellcat comes with a 6.2-liter V-8 engine, the same braking system as the previous trim level, and access to the best-in-class towing. It also has paddle shifters, captain chairs, and suspension like the model before it. Its real difference is in its engine and performance since it can apply a massive 710 hp.

There are several other notable features that the 2023 Dodge Durango comes with. These include interior and safety features such as available and standard sensors to help you stay aware of your surroundings, adaptive cruise control with stopping capabilities, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and easy-braking technology. Beyond these features, you can also experience lane-sensing technology, which helps you stay in your lane and provides alerts when you start to depart the lane. If you want the best safety features, the Citadel trim level comes standard with the full suite of sensing technologies and warning systems.
