Family-Friendly with Muscle-Car Street Cred: Dodge Durango

Dodge is known for its well-performing muscle cars. However, they are also the makers of a seven-seater SUV known as the Dodge Durango.

This car is roomy, performs well, and is great quality. The vehicle has been upgraded in 2019 to include better seats, audio systems, and technology. There are options for blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alerts, which allow for maximum safety while driving. It is possible to upgrade the vehicle to a V-8 engine, allowing for maximum power and towing capacity (the Durango offers a towing capacity of up to 7400 pounds). The Durango, although roomy, still has an athletic feel to it and is great to use as an everyday car, perfect for the family and driver alike.

The fuel economy is surprisingly good. Despite the size and power of the Durango (with V-8 engine), the vehicle still manages to earn 23 mpg. That’s certainly impressive when considering the power and room of this vehicle. The vehicle is also safe, achieving good crash-test results. There are other features, such as the automated emergency braking and backup camera (which comes standard). Also available are adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist.

Additionally, the vehicle allows for a comfortable riding experience. The interior features a great infotainment system that everyone in the family will be able to use with ease. The 8.4-inch screen is easily one of the best in the industry, and it is definitely worth the upgrade. There is also the option to add an entertainment system to the back, which features dual screens and the availability to connect more devices. Bluetooth connectivity comes standard, and the audio quality is amazing. The seats are able to fold down, allowing for maximum cargo space.
