Dodge Durango

Battle of the all-American hot rod crossovers.

The GT model gets a performance hood and front fascia

Dodge is adding to its police car portfolio with the 2018 Durango Pursuit, a specially-prepped police version of the automaker's SUV. Available with an optional 360-horsepower Hemi engine, the Durango Pursuit comes with everything you'd expect in a truck built to protect and serve. We'll try to avoid too many Blues Brothers cop car references but, yes, this Dodge includes some serious "cop shocks" and that aforementioned "cop engine," among many other modifications.

The third-generation Dodge Durango has been on sale since 2011. Essentially a long-wheelbase Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Durango's styling draws a lot of influence from cars like the Dodge Charger and Challenger. For 2018, the three-row SUV will be available with an optional GT Rallye appearance package. Think of this as a V6 model with the face from the more powerful Durango R/T.

All it's missing is the Hellcat's supercharger.

Dodge's high-performance SUV lives.

Sorry, but the Viper is still dead.

Some examples of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango may have been fitted with left front brake calipers made from the wrong type of iron, so FCA has issued a recall to check the casting dates on nearly 15,000 vehicles.
