Three Rows Of Fun | 2021 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat

- We all knew that given time, every vehicle in the Dodge lineup would get the 6.2L supercharged hellcat engine. For 2021 it's finally the Durango's turn with the SRT Hellcat Durango. Under the hood of this unsuspecting family hauler beats a 710 horsepower tune of the Hellcat engine mated to the same all-wheel-drive system the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk gets. The result is a 0-60 time for you and 5 of your closest friends below 3.5 seconds, a 11.5 second 1/4 mile, and a top speed of 180 MPH...

*The interior improvements is magnificient, they really should do the same interior improvements to Challenger,Charger and 300.* 😀
Yep, put that EXACT interior in all three of those cars, and that would be all that's needed.
I agree. The 300 is a nice car and has aged well. They need to update it and not let it die off
Agreed ... As well as a AWD option with the ScatPack & Hellcat
If it were any more American, it would come with its own built in cheeseburger dispenser and soda fountain
I also like the steering wheel, almost as much as the 500 abarth.
I just don’t get why doge did not continue with the magnum they need to make a comeback honestly
I really appreciate how you define "crossover", Alex
This is not a CROSSOVER
I love the idea of this, but I wish FCA would consider making something like this for the Pacifica. Probably not something as crazy a hellcat, but a Pacifica SRT. Fun and practicality in one package.
People who buys minivan usually don’t care about it.
@@alecshao3710 false
That's a mini van I would be excited to drive...
Hellcifica!! But I want the full 700hp lol
The new emissions rules might make that impossible. This is a one-year vehicle due to stricter emissions rules next year.
"...but the Highlander and Pilot are really just a lifted minivan" FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT
Also the Dodge Durango was one of the first vehicles I ever fell in love with back when I first got into cars in high school. Now I'm about to finish my software engineering degree and it seems like the gods have DM'd me about what I should spend that first sweet sweet tech industry paycheck on.
I have a 2018 Durango SRT bought it brand new for $98,000 Canadian. my ego is gonna be humbled when someone pulls up with the hellcat Durango at a light
Not a lot of people would buy it in Canada. Even your SRT is quite rare among other cars or Crossovers. You sure can be safe to have a top performing crossover at most of streetlights
Come to think of it, my '18 Trackhawk has slight fender flares, and that gives it a beefier look over a standard non-SRT (because you can still get an SRT non-Trackhawk Jeep) Grand Cherokee. And I have to salute FCA and its "Hellcat all the things!" policy. I'll keep my Trackhawk over the Durango Hellcat, but damn if I don't want to run out and get a Charger Hellcat Redeye when they come out next year.
Who watched this video?
Student = Like
Parents = comment.
I’m both
Nice parent- mobile!
Parents would say a big no to this car, and make their kids drive a base model Honda CRV
Neither. Single, mechanical engineer. Living at home. No student loans, no real expenses. I'm looking to get a scat pack wide body in manual soon, is that a bad way to spend money?
I'm a parent and I approve this vehicle lmao.
Dude! Stop saying "insane" so often! you are ruining our drinking game!
Love my 2020 srt Durango. Got it a few months ago and it still has less miles than your tester. Your reviews helped me to decide to get it.
Do you think the hell car version is better than the srt and worth the upgrade?
"better" depends on you - I had a Jeep SRT (very similar to your Durango SRT) and loved everything about it EXCEPT always wished it had more torque down low (all the power is made above 4500 RPM) - if that is something you've noticed also and would give up 4-6mpg and $15k to have it, then the Hellcat version is worth it. Otherwise not.
@@Twittavelli which "both"? (just so I know - the Jeep SRT and Durango SRT?). I actually like how the Jeep SRT exhaust is a bit more subdued than the Durango SRT, which seems to be loud as sin under acceleration.
@@rkalla I've only had the 5.7 in both, im not rich lol. But as over all vehicles I really love them both.
@@SD-br2mn I actually love the 5.7 (better MPG/longevity) - did it feel equally powerful in both the cars? I only test drove a 5.7 Durango for about 6 mins years ago and didn't really get to live with it. It seemed great though, good balance.
@@rkalla if feels more aggressive in the durango. But it could just be me, as the grand is light ter and quicker, I just feel more of a punch in the durango.
That is called forged carbon fiber on the trim pieces in the interior. It’s the same stuff that super cars are made of. They are not going for a linoleum or terrazzo look, lol.
Except in super cars its is functional, in this case it is entirely for the “look”
@@AAutoBuyersGuide agreed 100%. Love your content, keep up the great work! 👍🏼
I like the dash and Uconnect 5 in this refresh. I'm sure that SRT Hellcat would be gobs o' fun, but it will more likely be an R/T for me.
5:11 these are great comparison slides. Very informative at a glance. Great review as always.
4:11 Both the Durango SRT & Durango Hellcat have 6 passenger capacity standard with 2nd row Capt Chairs. With the Optional Lightweight Package, they will have 5 passenger capacity with a 2nd Row Bench seat and 3rd row delete. Unfortunately the SRT & Hellcat doesn’t offer the 7 passenger capacity, with 2nd Row bench & 3rd row.
Nice performance crossover. I would probably be hard pressed to get 13 MPG, I'm guessing that staying out of the throttle would be a bit difficult. Very addicting exhaust sounds, unless it's 6 AM.
Enough updates to keep it on the market for a few years.
Though I enjoy looking at my nx car my question is why are you rushing through this video rattling off non stop a hundred miles an hour my god slow you’re ass down there’s no time limit.
Other than the info screen everything looks really dated. But ...700 awd horses is soothing
I like my steering wheels THICC
I thought that was NC. Very cool Alex and a great time to be there.
Dodge is still milking it with this platform..
Dodge is so lazy. They must sit back and say "hey, instead of giving our customers more safety, fuel economy and modern technology, let's keep this ancient vehicle, just throw in a bigger engine"🤑
And a new dashboard! Give 'em some credit!
@@Johnny-lr5jt 10 years plus, and all we get for upgrades is a new dashboard 😅
Also the upgrade to the 8-speed transmission 7 years ago.
Averaging 11-12 mpg on 5.7 tow-n-go
You said that the Hellcat and SRT versions are the only ones with adaptive suspension. It’s also available on the 2021 RT if you get the Tow And Go package.
Alex, at 15:25 you claim that the Hellcat and SRT Durango are the only trims with the adaptive suspension. But isn't the Tow 'n' Go version of the R/T also adaptive?
It will be interesting to see how dealers handle mark-ups considering the fact that this so-called pandemic has so negatively affected the bottom line spending capability of so many potential customers. My guess is that in the coming year, people will be far less willing extend themselves financially with six, seven, and eight year car loans, which will in turn have significant impact on this particular type of vehicle, because it is targeted more towards the working class hoonigan on a budget, as opposed to the more luxurious brands that target people with *real money* to burn.
The Durango has aged well. The interior is very nice. What they lack in exterior updates they more than make up with MORE POWER!!
It's a great deal but unfortunately I won't be able to get it this year mainly due to covid which sucks that it's only one year production, screw emissions lol
I’m going to buy one used but only after I confirm America’s Most Wanted 4X4 can drop in a manual gearbox.
Good review Alex! FCA is really providing vehicles for review. If other auto-mfr's provided vehicles, you would be be doing 2 or 3 reviews daily.
Alex, thanks for no 'male pattern baldness' advertising like TFL(Tommy).
Just picked up my 2020 Durango RT last weekend, happy I am
Keep up the great work Alex!
Is there a red eye version coming?
what for? if you buy, your wallet is already getting black eye version. lol
This is NOT A CROSSOVER.
You can see how excited Alex with this Durango, it means a solid buy if your wallet is able to. 😆
Why do all Hellcats have heat extractor vents except the Challenger? Are they necessary or not?
This chick can COOK, because this chick loves to EAT
LookOmg forward to the in depth review of the Pacifica hellcat, which I’m sure is in development.
Hahah. Put a bright ORANGE interior in it
I like it thick, to answer your question Alex. 😁
Wonder why there is no 4-cyl as large is 3L, but such 6.2L 8-cyl engine exists.
Toyota has had a 2.7 in the past and GM does now. Generally the reason is they are not as easy to balance as a V8
Any idea what the payload capacity is on that cat?
over 700HP. pretty stupid
I love it 👍 not the interior but can't have everything...
Now get this AWD and throw it into a challenger and charger hellcat.
not now, if ford or GM comes up with their own versions, that's when you guys will get AWD, just like the bronco and 392 HEMI wrangler
Thick steering wheel is nice
3:00 that gas mileage 💀
Great review Alex.
Fun
Awesome
Here we go!
Deja vu?
Would you consider the Explorer as a competition to the Durango? Because like the Durango, the Explorer is rear wheel drive with AWD options, and it shares some engines (and the standard transmission) with the Ranger and F-150.
I thought the 2021 Durango was BOF? Why are you calling this a unibody?
It's still an FCA product in the end lolol
Does any civilian, non-military vehicle really need over 700 HP? Power madness has gotten out of hand.
