What’s New and Why It Matters

 

  • The shift to V‑8 only reasserts Dodge’s muscle‑SUV identity at a time when competitors rely on smaller engines or electric powertrains.
  • The GT trim now stands as “the most affordable AWD V‑8 vehicle in the industry, period” .
  • Sales momentum is strong: Q2 U.S. sales jumped over 50%, with the Durango topping the upper mid‑size SUV segment in JD Power’s APEAL Study.

FAQS

Yes, Dodge has eliminated the V‑6 option. Starting this year, all Durango trims come standard with HEMI® V‑8 engines. 

  • GT: Entry-level Durango with a 5.7 L V‑8 (360 hp), focused on offering V‑8 capability at an accessible price.
  • R/T: Mid-tier performance trim with a 6.4 L V‑8 (475 hp), stronger performance, and added features.
  • SRT Hellcat (and Jailbreak): Top-tier muscle SUV with a 710-hp supercharged 6.2 L V‑8 and extreme performance. Jailbreak adds custom aesthetics.

Over six million combinations, including wheels, colors, stripes, interiors, badges, and even seatbelt colors. A Dodge Concierge can even craft one-of-one exterior color options. 

Orders for GT and SRT Hellcat begin mid‑August 2025, with dealer arrivals slated for Q4 2025. R/T orders open later in the year. 

Yes. The GT’s starting price is about $4,000 higher than the previous V‑6 model, but the Hellcat is about $5,000 less than the previous model year.
