The Hellcat-powered Durango is all-new for 2021. However, the hugely powerful SUV is only scheduled for a single year of production. While the company pulled a similar move with the highly hyped and limited-edition Challenger SRT Demon, we hope strong sales and enthusiast interest will prolong this devilish Durango's life.
PROS A three-row SUV with 700-plus horses, as quick as a 797-hp Hellcat Challenger, surprisingly deft handling for its size.
CONS Precipitous price tag, miserable fuel economy, omnipresent supercharger whine can get annoying.
PROS Stupefying acceleration and speed Excellent infotainment system Theatrical exhaust sounds
CONS Novelty can wear off in day-to-day use Frightening fuel consumption Still feels outdated
Pros Large touchscreen tech interface is one of the best in class Strong V8s provide exceptional towing ability Real off-road capabilities with 4WD and low-range gearing
Cons Fuel economy is below average, especially with the V8s Many of the latest advanced driver safety features don't come standard Bigger and bulkier to drive than rival crossover SUVs
Pros Comfortable and upscale interior Touchscreen interfaces are intuitive and easy to use
Cons Price with options runs higher than average for the class Acceleration from 1.5-liter turbocharged engine is disappointing Less cargo space behind the back seat than in most competitors
Pros User-friendly infotainment system Adult-friendly seats Pleasant driving experience
Cons Underpowered engine Below-average cargo space Steep base price
Like it's platform mate, the cheaper Chevrolet Equinox, the Terrain receives a styling refresh for 2022 that includes a revised grille and front bumper, new LED headlamps and taillamps, fresh 18- and 19-inch wheel designs, updated upholstery, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.
Pros Roomy interior, good fuel economy numbers, rugged appearance.
Cons Plasticky cabin bits, irksome shifter toggle switches, middling acceleration performance.
