Key Features of the 2027 Dodge Durango
HEMI® V8 Performance
The 2027 Dodge Durango is defined by its engine choices, and the available HEMI® V8 lineup gives it a distinct advantage among three-row SUVs. The 5.7L HEMI® V8, standard on Durango GT HEMI® V8 models, delivers 360 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque, giving drivers confident passing power and a satisfying performance feel. Step up to the 6.4L HEMI® V8 in R/T 392 models and output rises to 475 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, with Dodge listing a 0-60 MPH time of 4.4 seconds. At the top of the lineup, the SRT® Hellcat and SRT® Hellcat Jailbreak models use a Supercharged 6.2L HEMI® V8 that produces 710 maximum horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful gas-engine SUV to ever meet the road according to Dodge. For drivers who prefer a strong standard foundation, the 3.6L Pentastar® V6 offers 295 horsepower, 260 lb-ft of torque and an eight-speed automatic transmission. Across the range, the Durango delivers muscle-car attitude with SUV usability.
Best-in-Class Available Towing Capability
The 2027 Durango is more than quick. It is built to haul with authority. When properly equipped, SRT® Hellcat models, R/T 392 models and GT HEMI® V8 models equipped with Tow ’n Go can tow up to 8,700 pounds, giving the Durango Best-in-Class available towing capability. That matters for Kentucky drivers who want to bring along a boat, utility trailer, camper or recreational equipment without stepping into a pickup. The available Tow ’n Go Package on HEMI® V8 models adds serious hardware, including SRT® Satin Carbon 20x10-Inch Wheels, Black Brembo Brake Calipers, Bilstein® Active Damping High-Performance Suspension, Electronic Limited Slip Rear Axle, Pirelli® Scorpion™ Zero Run-Flat 295 Tires, Performance Exhaust, hard button drive modes, Class IV Trailer Hitch and Integrated Trailer Brake Control. The Trailer Tow Group IV also adds towing-focused support such as a seven-pin and four-pin wiring harness, Class IV Receiver Hitch, Rear Load-Leveling Suspension and Blind Spot Monitoring with Trailer Detection. The result is an SUV that feels ready for real hauling, not just occasional light-duty utility.
Uconnect® 5 with 10.1-Inch Touchscreen
The Durango cabin is designed around control, and the Uconnect® 5 system helps make technology feel natural. The available 10.1-inch Uconnect® touchscreen provides access to entertainment, apps, vehicle settings and available navigation in a clean, driver-focused layout. Up to five drivers can create custom profiles, which can include tailored homepages, comfort preferences and vehicle settings. That is helpful when multiple household members share the same SUV and want the Durango to feel familiar from the moment the engine starts. Wireless Android Auto® compatibility and Apple CarPlay® support make phone syncing simple, allowing access to music, messages, apps and calls without extra cable clutter. On SRT®, R/T 392 and HEMI® V8 models, available Performance and SRT® Pages bring enthusiast-focused data to the touchscreen, including g-force, engine power, vehicle dynamics and more. Available SiriusXM® adds over 150 channels of music, news and entertainment on properly equipped models, while available wireless charging, Type A-C USB ports and a 115-volt outlet help keep devices powered.
Over 50 Seating Configurations
Performance may draw attention first, but the 2027 Dodge Durango is also highly practical. Its three-row design can seat up to seven passengers, depending on configuration, and Dodge notes more than 50 different seating arrangements. That flexibility makes the Durango easy to adapt for carpools, groceries, sports gear, luggage, pets and weekend equipment. Available second-row Fold & Tumble seats provide quick access to the third row with a simple pull of a strap, while split-folding second- and third-row seats help adjust the cabin around passengers and cargo. When the second and third rows are folded, the Durango offers up to 85.1 cubic feet of cargo space. Available third-row seating gives households more flexibility when extra passengers join the ride, and available second-row captain’s chairs can create a more open, comfortable layout for six passengers. The Durango also supports comfort with available heated front seats, an available heated steering wheel, available 12-way power front seats and available premium leather-wrapped seating finishes. For audio fans, the available Harman Kardon® Premium Audio System includes an 825-watt amplifier and 19 speakers.
Advanced Safety and Driver Assistance
The 2027 Durango supports its performance with a meaningful set of safety and security features. Standard equipment includes systems such as ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera, Electronic Stability Control, Advanced Brake Assist with Ready Alert Braking and Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection. Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection uses sensors to help identify vehicles in blind spot zones while driving and cross traffic while backing up. Available LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist can provide audible and visual alerts and may help with steering assistance if unintentional lane drift is detected. Available Forward Collision Warning with Full Stop can warn the driver of a potential forward collision and can use automated emergency braking to bring the vehicle to a full stop if needed. Available Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop can adjust speed to maintain a safe following distance and can bring the Durango to a complete stop when necessary. For towing, available Blind Spot Monitoring with Trailer Tow Detection helps monitor areas beside the vehicle and trailer when changing lanes.
