The Return of the SRT Hellcat
In 2021, the Durango offered a limited edition SRT Hellcat powertrain. As popular as it was powerful, it was only natural for Dodge to bring it back. This year’s revival features a supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat engine. You will recognize the HEMI V8 from related models such as the Dodge Challenger.
For this Dodge Durango for sale, the incredible engine delivers 710 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque. The TorqueFlite 8 speed automatic transmission is an especially heavy duty edition to handle the demands. Paddle shifters make purists happy by giving them plenty of manual driving fun.
Drive modes include auto, sport, track, snow and tow. In fact, this big family rig can tow up to 8,700 pounds.
When you want to use Launch Control, there’s a toggle switch that you utilize to achieve grip. This helps you get the straight-line acceleration you want while preventing the tire slip that could slow you down.
Hellcat Construction
To create a Hellcat engine, every element must be upgraded to deal with the heat and pressure. There are additional cooling measures such as the charge air coolers. Water jackets help keep the cast-iron engine block cool. There are sodium-cooled exhaust valves and piston-cooling oil jets. Special twin-screw rotors are positioned to prevent air leak. Pressure is boosted by an integrated electronic bypass valve.
The forged-steel crankshaft has a special-tuned damper that has been tested at speeds up to 13,000 rpm. Pistons are a high-strength forged alloy. Connecting rods are power-forged, and piston pints are carbon coated.
You can compare the Dodge Durango to the Jeep Grand Cherokee at our Chrysler Jeep dealership. Schedule a test drive to learn more.
Aerodynamic Styling
To make the engine its most efficient, the build has a cold-air scoop in the front fascia. Other elements of cold air inductions include air guide, snorkel and chin splitter. There’s also an engine oil cooler duct.
Providing aerodynamic balance, the rear spoiler can produce a rear downforce of 140 pounds at the car’s top speed of 180 miles per hour.
Some might look at the Durango and say it leans into the wind. The sculpted hood and grille are highlighted by LED headlights and signature daytime running lamps. Fender badges remind you this is the SRT Hellcat edition.
SRT Hellcat Interior
The SRT Hellcat interior is distinguished by red-accent gauges and special seating. The upholstery combines Nappa Leather with soft suede inserts. Embroidered logos add another racy touch.
With the 10.1-inch touchscreen, it angles the display at 7 degrees to make it easier for the driver to see and use. This system enhances your driving experience by allowing you to input adjustments to every element. This includes the shift speed, steering response, traction controls, and suspension dampers. It even includes the all-wheel drive system and the paddle shifters.
Each time you start the Durango SRT Hellcat, the start-up animation features a special “smoke show” theme. On the climate control menu, the adjustment icon is a Dodge stripe, and front positions are marked by race helmets. Special screen elements include a unique Serpentine font and SRT logos.
SRT Custom packages include more amenities, more utility, and more safety. The Plus package is sure to be a favorite. To complement the SUV’s racy attitude, it has high-performance Laguna leather seats, a sunroof, and towing equipment.
You can add the Premium package. This adds racy red seatbelts. It wraps the instrument panel in leather. Cabin accents are handsome carbon fiber. The Harman Kardon sound system spreads 19 speakers around the cabin. There’s a fun Blacktop package that adds Black Noise wheels.
Durango Trim Levels
You’ll recognize the rest of the lineup from the 2022 Dodge Durango model year. The Durango SXT has a 293-horsepower engine. Dodge Durango GT, GT Plus and Citadel models push that up to 295 horsepower. R/T and R/T Plus have a 360-horsepower engine. You can schedule a test drive of your favorite.
Until this year, the top of the heap has been the exciting SRT 392. This model has standard all-wheel drive. It has a 475-horsepower engine which allows it to push the towing capacity from 6,200 to 8,700 pounds. Shoppers will be happy to know that it continues in this 2023 model year.
Seating a big family on three rows, the Durango has 141 cubic feet of storage space. There’s lots of wiggle room, including 38.6 inches of second-row legroom.
Owners enjoy much more than three rows of seats. The SUV offers all of the things you need, including a power liftgate, rear parking sensors, keyless entry, remote start, and other modern amenities.
The 8.4-inch touch screen is one of the largest basic infotainment systems on the market. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standard connectivity features.
