Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

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.

By: 
caranddriver.com

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Still feels outdated

By: 
cnet.com

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

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Lots of standard safety and technology features
Adult-friendly seating
Above-average cargo capacity
Standard all-wheel drive

Cons
Rivals are more engaging to drive

By:

For 2022, the only change to the Ascent lineup is the new Onyx Edition. An appearance package based on the seven-seat Premium model, it includes unique black-out exterior elements and 20-inch rims. It also comes standard with a hands-free power liftgate, a heated steering wheel, passive entry with push-button start, and rear automated emergency braking. The lone option package for the Onyx Edition adds onboard navigation, a panoramic sunroof, and a retractable cargo cover.

Pros
Multi-configurable second-row captain's chairs,
standard all-wheel drive and lots of safety tech,
quiet,
smooth ride.

Cons
Highway passes require patience,
engine noise isn't well masked,
third row not fit for adults on long trips.
