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CONS Novelty can wear off in day-to-day use Frightening fuel consumption Still feels outdated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
The 2020 Jeep Wrangler is an American SUV icon and off-road wonder, but not without compromise.
Pros Iconic looks Improved interior New turbodiesel Unquestionable off-road ability Two- or four-door body styles
Cons Expensive in almost any trim Rough everyday ride Cramped rear seat Safety is unknown
The 2020 Jeep Wrangler comes with four wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 6-speed manual.New V6 mild hybrid engine option on Sahara Unlimited trim.New Altitude variant for Sport and Sahara models.Moab trim discontinued.
Pros Unrelentingly capable off-road Rugged Jeep character Extensive customization options from the factory and aftermarket
Cons Steering is slow and feels loose, especially on the Rubicon trim Lots of wind and tire noise at highway speeds Less cargo space than some conventional crossovers
The 2020 Jeep Wrangler is what the Jeep brand is all about—with roots that date back to the original World War II–era military vehicle—and its off-road capability borders on amazing. While it looks much like the first-generation Jeep that was created to support our troops, it has evolved into a one-of-kind four-wheel-drive vehicle, with tech and luxury to match its off-road chops. It offers everything from air conditioning to leather.
Pros Throwback styling, heroic off-road capability, you can take off the doors and roof.
Cons Tight cabin, lots of wind noise, trucklike compared with other SUVs.
