The Dodge Durango is built to stand out on the road while offering the functionality you require, whether you’re searching for a family-friendly car or a powerful ride that can tackle a variety of terrains. Let’s look more closely at what makes the Dodge Durango a desirable option for drivers looking for a balance of utility, performance, and flair.
Beginning with the 1998 model year, Dodge began producing three models of the mid-size/full-size Durango SUV. The first two versions were quite similar in that they both had body-on-frame construction, were based on the Dodge Dakota and Dodge Ram, and were both manufactured in the Newark Assembly Plant in Newark, Delaware, through the 2009 model year. With the 2011 model year, the third-generation Durango was introduced. It has unibody construction and is constructed on the same platform as the Jeep Grand Cherokee. It has been put together at the Detroit, Michigan, Jefferson North Assembly Plant since late 2010.
