The Dodge and SRT brands are rocking the high-performance automotive world once again, bringing a huge burst of American power, acceleration and best-in-class towing capability to the three-row SUV segment with the new 2018 Dodge Durango SRT – the fastest SUV in its class.
With the proven 6.4-litre Hemi V8 under its functional SRT hood, the new 2018 Dodge Durango SRT delivers 475 horsepower and 637Nm of torque, and a wicked fast time on the drag strip – from zero to 100 kilometres per hour (km/h) in 4.5 seconds, covering the quarter-mile in 12.9 seconds as certified by the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA).
To keep the powertrain running cool and efficient in higher demand environments, a new cold-air duct provides cooler outside air into the engine. Testing has shown a significant improvement in intake air temperature, resulting in an engine that performs flawlessly on the street, racetrack or when towing a favourite trailer or toy.
Assuring maximum performance under extreme conditions, the 2018 Durango SRT has been validated through rigorous 24-hour track durability testing – a testing standard that every SRT vehicle adheres to.
The 2018 Durango SRT provides enhanced shift quality and performance drivability, as well as optimised fuel economy, through its TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission. This proven transmission was specifically calibrated for the Durango SRT to optimise shift points and deliver maximum torque to all four wheels. For the ultimate driver-controlled experience, the transmission can be manually shifted using the performance-inspired steering wheel paddle controls on the exclusive SRT-lit flat-bottom steering wheel.
The Durango SRT also features the SRT seven-mode drive system, which provides the driver the ability to precisely adjust drive settings to maximise performance or comfort. Suspension, torque distribution, shift points, stability control and engine mapping are all controlled through this system. In addition to these parameters, suspension feel is controlled by a sophisticated Active Damping System that opens and closes the suspension’s damper valves according to the chosen drive mode, providing the driver with options for any driving style.
