Fiat Chrysler is showing new performance add-ons for the 2018 Dodge Durango R/T and SRT models at the Chicago Auto Show, including the familiar Dodge dual center stripes and a new Mopar exhaust system. The 475-horsepower SRT model, which is powered by a 6.4-liter Hemi V8, will also offer a lowering spring kit and a carbon-fiber instrument panel.
TranscriptJOEL STOCKSDALE: For 2018, Dodge is offering a number of Mopar upgrades for the Dodge Durango R/T and Dodge Durango SRT models. Among the appearance items are a new stripe kit that goes across the front bumper, the hood, and the roof. It's available in five different colors. It's available in either blue, red, black, gun metal, or silver.
On the inside, another appearance item, they just call it an interior upgrade kit, comes with some things like some carbon fiber trim on the doors, paint matched rings around the speakers, little things like that. As far as performance goes, both the R/T and the SRT are available with stainless steel exhaust systems that give the burlier, meaner note. And the SRT in particular is available with a lowering spring kit that gives it a lower stance and offers slightly better performance. The spring kit is also very cheap at just under $400.
If you're interested in getting any of these Mopar accessories for a new Dodge Durango down the road, they will be available in the next few months. For more coverage of everything at the Chicago Auto Show and more, check out autoblog.com
