2021 Dodge Durango Hellcat costs $6,400 less than a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk
The updated Dodge Durango starts at $33,260 for the base trim and goes as high as $82,490 for the SRT Hellcat.
Dodge confirmed pricing for the 2021 Durango lineup on Wednesday, with the big-ticket SRT Hellcat coming in at $82,490, including $1,495 for destination. Of course, the entire Durango SUV model line gets a number of updates for 2021, with pricing starting at $33,260 for the base, V6-powered SXT.
The Durango SRT Hellcat packs a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine with 710 horsepower and 645 pound-feet of torque. This means it's able to accelerate to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and will top out at 180 mph. Interestingly, this Durango costs a full $6,400 less than Fiat-Chrysler's other Hellcat-powered SUV, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. And honestly, to our eyes, the Dodge looks way cooler.
All 2021 Durango models get a small exterior design update and the result is an SUV that's fresher and more attractive than before. Inside, the Durango can be had with FCA's fantastic new Uconnect 5 multimedia tech, housed on a 10.1-inch touchscreen.
In addition to the standard 3.6-liter V6, the Durango is available with Dodge's 5.7-liter Hemi V8. The cheapest way to get V8 power is with the rear-wheel-drive Durango R/T, which starts at $46,800 including destination. All-wheel drive is available on both V6 and V8 models.
A new R/T Tow N Go package joins the lineup for 2021, priced at $54,395. This gets you the 5.7-liter Hemi V8, Brembo brakes, SRT wheels, a performance exhaust and more. As its name suggests, the Tow N Go trim is where the Durango offers the most trailering capability, able to pull 8,700 pounds.
If the full-blown Durango Hellcat isn't your bag, Dodge will continue to offer the SRT 392 version, with V8 power and standard all-wheel drive. It's priced at a slightly more reasonable $64,490.
