The 2007 Dodge Durango has a large, rugged exterior and is packed with features. It offers best-in-class cargo room with all three rows folded, has plenty of interior storage space and can tow up to 8,900 pounds.
The Durango is available in five trim levels, ranging from the base SXT to the top-of-the-line Citadel. The base SXT comes with a 3.7L V6 and four-wheel drive, while the other three models come with a 5.7L Hemi V8.
Standard features include a 115-volt outlet, power locks and windows, cruise control, air conditioning, power seats, a steering wheel with audio controls and a CD player with a MP3 interface. Additional options include leather upholstery, a navigation system and a sunroof.
A six-seater, the 2007 Durango can seat up to eight people with a three-row bench and is available with bucket seats in the second row for more comfort. There are also available individual climate controls, reclining seat backs and a DVD entertainment system.
The 2007 Dodge Durango offers a choice of two- or four-wheel drive and a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 with Chrysler's fuel-saving Multi-Displacement System, which shuts down half of the cylinders when they aren't needed to improve gas mileage. A 4.7-liter Flexible Fuel E85-compatible engine is also offered, allowing drivers to switch between gasoline and ethanol to save on gas costs.
The Durango's performance is rated to go from 0 to 60 mph in less than eight seconds, but it can't match the acceleration of larger SUVs and can feel heavy when going down the highway. The Durango's gas mileage isn't great, with the 4.7-liter and 5.7-liter Hemi V8 getting 14 mpg city/19 mpg highway.
