The 2022 Dodge Durango is available with a lineup of powerful engine options. The base trim is powered by a 293-hp 3.6L V6 engine, and options include a 5.7L V8, generating 360 hp, as well as a 6.4L V8 engine with an output of 475 hp. They are all paired to an eight-speed transmission and offer a dynamic and thrilling driving experience, with quick acceleration and excellent handling. When powered by the V8 engine, it can go from zero to 60 mph in just 6.2 seconds, according to the manufacturer.
2. Towing capability
On top of the exciting performance, these potent engines contribute to a great towing capability on the 2022 Dodge Durango. When properly equipped, the AWD 6.4L V8 Durango can tow up to an estimated 8,700 lbs.
