Dodge Durango:
New For the 2024 Model

2024 Dodge Durango | Deery Brothers of Ames, Inc. in Ames IA

Despite the rumors, the Dodge Durango isn’t being discontinued quite yet. The 2024 Durango is better than ever, with a variety of novel features to add to the lineup. Across the lineup, there’s now standard blind spot monitoring. This updated blind spot monitoring system has trailer tow detection when purchased with the towing package. Speaking of which, updates have been made to the Durango Citadel: the towing package is available on this trim, there’s now performance exhaust, and some minor aesthetic upgrades.

Dodge Durango:
Powertrains and Performance

If you’re driving a Durango, you’re driving a powerful SUV with any of the available engines. The first is the 3.6L Pentastar V6 that makes 295 horsepower and can tow up to 6,200 pounds. Upgrading is never a bad option. Next, the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine makes 360 horsepower and can tow up to 7,400 pounds. There’s a big jump with the next available engine for the Durango. The 6.7L HEMI V8 engine makes an impressive 475 horsepower and can tow up to 8,700 pounds. For the enthusiasts, there’s the supercharged 6.2L HEMI V8 that makes a whopping 710 horsepower and can tow up to 8,700 pounds.

Having the choice between all-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive is terrific, but it can be a burden at the higher end. That’s why Dodge has it split perfectly. All models have the option for a front or rear-wheel drive drivetrain except the very top end. The Durango SRT and Durango Hellcat are only available in all-wheel drive.

Towing Package

While we’ve brushed over the Durango towing package, there’s more to it than just a tow hitch and upgraded blind spot monitoring. These include an integrated brake controller and performance-enhanced brakes. These both pair well with the Durango’s best-in-class maximum towing capacity.

Safety Features

There’s more to safety than just a tire pressure sensor or a side or head air bag. These days, vehicles can be filled to the brim with a variety of high-tech safety features. Whether it’s the available rain-sensing wipers, the blind spot monitor, available lane departure warning, available rear parking aid, available adaptive cruise control, or even the daytime running lights, the 2024 Durango is safer than ever from all angles.

Dodge Durango:
Interior Space and Features

Cargo Capacity and Seating

The main concern with a spacious SUV like the Durango is often: is it actually spacious? With the 2024 Durango, the answer is yes! With plenty of head room, leg room, and hip room for the driver being expected for the driver in vehicles like these, Iowans often wonder, is there enough room for my family and my stuff, too? Passengers ride comfortably in the Durango, regardless of the row they’re riding in, with ample leg, hip, and shoulder room. That’s in part due to the available pass-through rear seat in the back.

What’s more, there’s room in the trunk left over for anything you need to stow on your journey. Though there’s a truly massive amount of space with the third row folded down, even with the third row, there’s more than enough room for routine expeditions.

Interior Features

These days, drivers are looking for more than just an auxiliary audio input out of their vehicle technology. Luckily for Durango drivers, there’s an either 8.4” or 10.1” infotainment screen paired with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in every Durango. Depending Durango on the trim you opt for, you’ll get from a basic to an opulent interior in your Durango. That means the power in your hands to pay for what you’re looking for and save on what you can live without.

Make no mistake about how luxurious the interior of the Durango can get. It’s beyond the blind spot monitor and rear bucket seats. With the Durango, you can ride comfortably with a heated steering wheel with an already warm car thanks to remote start technology. These daily comforts can be complemented by a premium leather interior, heated seats, and more. There’s really no end to how great the interior of the Durango can get.
