2022 Dodge Durango GT Plus

The 2022 Durango is a three-row SUV that blends family practicality with Dodge's muscle-car attitude, a rare combination in its class. It squares off against the Ford Explorer, Chevrolet Traverse, and Jeep Grand Cherokee L, but none offer a V8 with this much character. The Durango drives with a solid, planted feel, and the V8 models accelerate with a satisfying rumble that makes every trip a little more fun. The ride is smooth and composed on the highway, though the sport-tuned suspension on performance trims is firmer than some rivals. Inside, the Durango offers generous legroom, a roomy third row, and plenty of cargo space behind the second row, plus many USB ports and cupholders. The GT Plus is the trim for buyers who want the V6's efficiency and the R/T's comfort features without the V8's thirst, adding heated seats and a heated wheel over the base GT. The GT Plus comes standard with 20-inch aluminum wheels and a sport-tuned suspension that keeps the body flat in corners, though the ride is firmer than the Citadel's.
