5 reasons to buy the 2015 Dodge Durango

1. Robust engine options 

The 2015 Durango's optional 5.7L HEMI® V8, delivers outstanding performance. It generates 360 horsepower and offers an estimated towing capacity of up to 7,400 lbs when properly equipped, making it a formidable choice for towing trailers or recreational vehicles.

 Its strength ensures you have ample power for both daily driving and more demanding tasks. Even if you opt for the base engine, you’re still getting a capable 3.6L V6 with 295 hp. 

2. Comfortable interior 

Comfort in the Durango is paramount. Even the third row is suitable for adults on shorter trips and ideal for children on longer journeys. The cabin configuration is versatile, with an option for second-row captain’s chairs, enhancing comfort for all passengers. Folding the second and third rows creates an expansive cargo area of 84.5 cu-ft, perfect for larger items or moving day. 

3. Responsive Uconnect® system 

The Durango's Uconnect system stands out for its user-friendliness and array of features. Models equipped with Voice Command and navigation simplify route planning, while the 8.4-inch touchscreen provides Bluetooth® connectivity for effortless audio streaming. For an enhanced audio experience, look for models with the Beats by Dr. Dre premium audio system. 

4. Commanding presence 

The Durango's bold and imposing design, ensures a striking presence on the road. For added driving confidence look out for available driver assist features such as rear parking assist, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive cruise control. These can all make your commute and city drives much easier, while you benefit from the Durango’s great outward visibility. 

5. Flexible cargo options 

The Durango's interior is not only spacious but adaptable. With a standard seven-passenger layout, it includes a fold-flat front passenger seat and split-folding second and third rows, allowing for various passenger and cargo combinations. With the two back rows folded, you get 84.5 cu-ft of space but even behind the second row, you’ll still get 47.7 cu-ft.
