2009 Dodge Durango

Brawny, refined. And fuel-efficient. edited by New Car Test Drive

Summary

2009 Dodge Durango

The Dodge Durango is smooth and powerful with either of the two V8 engines, and the new Hybrid powertrain operates admirably, though with a few minor annoyances. This large midsize SUV rides well, handles well for its size and weight, and has excellent engineering touches and details. If you need a large SUV for towing or managing rough terrain, the Durango is a fine choice. If not, a car-based crossover SUV would provide a more pleasant driving experience.
