All models have 4-wheel disc brakes and ride on a short/long-arm front suspension with a rear multi-link arrangement. Both the front and rear of the Durango are isolated on cradles to allow comfort and control on rougher surfaces off the pavement and under load. SRT models benefit from Brembo 6-piston disc brakes and a Bilstein active-damping high-performance suspension.
Two different family-friendly layouts in the Durango permit either 5-, 6-, or 7-passenger seating--depending on the second row, where a second-row bench is standard on most of the models, dual captain's chairs are available with two different console layouts, including one that permits easy access to the third row. There is a total of 85 cubic feet with both sets of rear seatbacks folded, which is enough to fit a 6-foot couch or a coffee table, according to Dodge. Otherwise, there are a total of 30 storage areas, including plenty of smaller cubbies.
The Pursuit trim comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, 5-passenger seating, a ParkView backup camera, LED headlamps, an 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system, tri-zone climate control, heated mirrors, cruise control, mobile hotspot, 2 USB ports, and Apple CarPlay\Android Auto connectivity.
The R/T and SRT Hellcat trims have a sport suspension, power liftgate, 20-inch wheels, heated bucket seats, ambient lighting, a 9-speaker sound system, 10.1-inch touchscreen, voice activated navigation, real time traffic and weather, a garage door transmitter, inductive device charging and connectivity, 4 USB ports, and a leather sport steering wheel.
The SRT Hellcat adds cooled front seats, auto high beams, auto-dimming side mirrors with integrated turn signals, cross drilled brakes with painted calipers, a power passenger front seat, heated rear seats, driver seat memory, and 6 USB ports.
Standard safety equipment includes parking sensors, blind spot warning, rear collision mitigation and 7 airbags.
