2019 Dodge Durango GT Trim Gets SRT Styling

The 2019 Dodge Durango lineup is getting a few enhancements when it arrives dealerships this fall.

Pricing for the SUV will start from $29,995 excluding destination and the 2019 Dodge Durango will be available in five distinct models: SXT, GT, Citadel, R/T, and SRT. The most noticeable change is heading to the Durango GT trim, which now shares the Durango SRT and R/T’s performance front fascia and LED fog lamps. Also available for the GT is the SRT-inspired performance hood with center air inlet duct and two heat extractors.

For the Durango Citadel model, it now gets standard second-row captain’s chairs for the 2019 model. The Durango R/T models are now available with Sepia leather seats and an 825-watt, 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. Meanwhile, all Durango models equipped with the optional Trailer Tow Group now feature a new integrated trailer brake.

The SRT trim gets a few minor changes as well, including available red seat belts and lightweight, high-performance Brembo brakes with two-piece rotors. Customers can also opt for an 825-watt, 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system for the cabin, and 20-inch wheels finished in Matte Vapor or Brass Monkey.

At the top of the range is the SRT model with 475 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque, capable of going zero-to-60 mph in 4.4 seconds.

“The Durango is our three-row Charger of the SUV segment, delivering uncompromised utility, advanced technology, class-leading towing and driving range, confident driving dynamics and aggressive styling,” said Steve Beahm, head of Passenger Cars, Dodge//SRT, Chrysler and FIAT, FCA – North America. “Customer demand for utility vehicles in the United States has exploded over the past decade, and with America’s fastest, most powerful and most capable three-row SUVs in our garage and the new updates for the 2019 model year, Dodge Durango continues to separate itself from the competition with the performance and capability that our customers demand.”
