The 2022 Dodge Durango is a midsize three-row SUV with a powerful V8 engine. Thanks to that, its towing capacity is pretty generous, with two trim levels being especially good for bringing your boat to the lake or ocean. If you’re in the market for a midsize SUV that can tow a whole lot, take a look at these two Dodge Durango trims: the 2022 Dodge Durango SRT 392 and the R/T with the Tow N Go package.

The 2022 Dodge Durango SRT 392 towing capacity is high

If you want a Dodge Durango with a high towing capacity, you might want to consider the 2022 Durango SRT 392. Dodge says that the SRT 392 can tow up to 8,700 pounds. The 2022 Dodge Durango SRT 392 comes with a 6.4-liter V8 engine that can make 475 hp. The SRT is the fastest Dodge Durango, going from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds.

In addition to having a powerful and quick engine, the Durango SRT is versatile. The 2022 Dodge Durango SRT can hold up to six passengers and has 17 cubic feet of storage space. It has a leather and microsuede interior as well as heated and ventilated front seats. Its price starts at $70,555.

The Dodge Durango R/T with Tow N Go can tow a lot

The other Dodge Durango that can tow a lot is the 2022 Dodge Durango R/T with the Tow N Go package. When the Durango R/T is equipped with this tow package it can also tow up to 8,700 pounds. The R/T with Tow N Go comes with a 5.7-liter V8 engine that can make 360 hp and 390 lb-ft of torque.

The Dodge Durango price for the R/T is $47,625. The R/T also has a household power outlet, which is perfect if you have a family who will be regularly traveling in your Durango. The EPA-estimated fuel economy for the Durango R/T is 17 MPG combined.

Other Durango trim levels can tow a lot, but not quite as much

If you don’t need quite the towing capacity of the 2022 Dodge Durango SRT 392 or R/T with Tow N Go, you may be interested in some of the other Dodge Durangos. The 2022 Dodge R/T and Citadel with rear-wheel-drive can tow up to 7,400 pounds. The all-wheel-drive version of the R/T and Citadel can tow up to 7,200 pounds.

If you only need to tow a little bit (but more than most midsize SUVs), consider the 2022 Dodge Durango SXT, SXT Plus, GT, and Citadel. Both the all-wheel-drive and the rear-wheel-drive versions of these Durangos can tow up to 6,200 pounds. These SUVs come with a 3.6-liter V6 engine.

The towing capacity of the 2022 Dodge Durango is pretty impressive. If towing is your number one priority when shopping for an SUV, then the Dodge Durango should be on your list. Properly equipped it can tow a whole lot more than most other SUVs, making this a worthwhile investment for anyone who regularly needs to tow something big.
