2022 Dodge Durango Prices: MSRP vs Dealer Invoice vs True Dealer Cost w/Holdback

Dodge has streamlined their lineup for 2022. In fact, if a buyer wants a Dodge but they do not want a muscle car, the 2022 Durango is their only option. It is a three-row SUV that combines the power that Dodge is known for with the versatility and practicality that today's families need.

What's New for 2022?

Prior to this year, the entry-level model of the Durango had only two rows of seating. As of 2022, all models have the third row. The entry-level SXT gains many extra standard features as well, including blind-spot monitoring, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and rear parking sensors. Rounding out the new standard feature list are roof rails.

Many other trim levels gain extra features this year. The GT is now home to heated front seats, a remote start, and a heated steering wheel. The GT Plus will give buyers rain-sensing windshield wipers and heated rear seats. As for the top R/T Plus trim, it adds a sunroof and Nappa leather seating surfaces.

Performance Stats

The 2022 Durango can have one of three hearty engines. Standard is a 3.6L V6 that generates 295-horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. The R/T model is home to a 5.7L V8 that produces 360-horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque. At the top of the trim ladder is the SRT, which has a 6.2L V8 that pumps out 475-horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque.

All three of the engines get paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available on most 2022 Durango models. The exception is the SRT, which comes with the AWD automatically.

Fuel Economy

Models of the Durango with the V6 get an estimated 19mpg city and 26mpg highway with rear-wheel drive and 18mpg city and 25mpg highway with all-wheel drive. The 5.7L V8 gets only 14mpg city and 22mpg highway. This is true of both rear-wheel and all-wheel-drive models. The 6.2L V8, which comes exclusively with all-wheel drive, gets a mere 13mpg city and 19mpg highway. Naturally, there are three-row midsize SUVs that are much more efficient.

Technology Features

All models of the 2022 Durango come with the UConnect infotainment system, which is widely applauded for its ease of use. An 8.4-inch touchscreen is standard, and a 10-inch touchscreen is available. Standard tech features for this SUV include Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, satellite radio, Bluetooth, and four USB ports.

Wireless smartphone integration and wireless charging are available on higher trim levels, along with navigation. Buyers can choose to upgrade from the standard six-speaker setup to a nine-speaker or even a 19-speaker system, depending on the trim. A rear-seat entertainment system, Amazon Alexa compatibility, and extra USB ports round out the available tech upgrades for the Durango.

Safety Features

A rearview camera, blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, and rear cross-traffic alert make up the standard advanced safety feature list for the 2022 Durango. While the list is relatively short, it does include some of the most popular options out there. Starting with the GT, the Durango offers adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and forward-collision warning. Automatic high beams are available as well.

Interior Space

In its standard configuration, the 2022 Dodge Durango has seating for up to seven. Like most three-row SUVs, this one can swap out its second-row bench for second-row captain's chairs, reducing the seating capacity to six. The front and second rows have plenty of space for adults, while the third row should be strictly reserved for children.

There is a good deal of cargo space to take advantage of in the Durango. Buyers will find 17.2 cubic feet behind the third row, and they find 43.3 cubic feet behind the second row. When both of the Durango's back rows are down, there are 85.1 cubic feet to fill with camping gear, luggage, or groceries.

Interior Quality

Overall, the interior of the Durango is comfortable and upscale. Dodge has continuously made updates to the cabin so that it continues to feel fresh and modern. Thanks to the solid design, most road and wind noise is kept out of the interior. The top SRT trim level takes things a bit further with active noise cancellation on its standard feature list.

Cloth upholstery and tri-zone automatic climate control are among the standard Durango features. An auto-dimming rearview mirror and keyless ignition help to make the SUV feel more upscale. As buyers venture higher on the trim list, they find heated seats, household-style power outlets, and genuine leather upholstery.

Exterior Design

LED foglights and headlights are both standard features for all 2022 Durango trims. The entry-level model has 18-inch alloy wheels equipped. Starting with the GT, buyers will find 20-inch wheels instead. Available exterior features include an auto-dimming driver's side mirror, a sunroof, and a power liftgate. The Citadel trim level shows off eye-catching chrome accents.

The 2022 Dodge Durango is a powerful yet practical three-row SUV that is worth a test drive.

A note about rebates: Most rebates are subtracted from the "on the road" figure. In most cases, you can have the rebate if you are arranging your own financing or you are paying cash. If you decide to use the manufacturer’s low interest financing, you do not usually get the rebate. Ask your dealer for details.
