2021 Dodge Durango R/T Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Dodge's legendary 5.7-liter HEMI V8, an engine that has earned its reputation across decades of American performance vehicles. In the Durango R/T, this engine produces 360 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque — numbers that make passing on the highway or towing feel effortless. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, power delivery is smooth but immediate, and the transmission's wide gear spread keeps the engine in its sweet spot whether you're cruising I-75 through Detroit or merging onto I-94.

The all-wheel-drive system on this Durango R/T is a genuine asset in Michigan, where winter conditions in Wayne County can shift from wet to icy without warning. The AWD setup provides real confidence in mixed weather, and the Durango's standard tow rating of up to 7,200 lbs makes it one of the most capable SUVs in its class. Whether you're hauling a boat up to Lake St. Clair or navigating snowpack on the way to northern Michigan, this drivetrain delivers.

Dodge Durango R/T Features and Interior

The R/T trim on the 2021 Durango is not a stripper package. It comes loaded with sport-tuned suspension, performance-oriented exterior styling with R/T badging, and a well-appointed interior designed for real family use. The Durango's three-row layout means seating for up to seven, and the second and third rows offer more genuine legroom than most crossover competitors.

Inside, buyers can expect an 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, heated front seats, and a premium audio system on most R/T configurations. The 2021 model year also brought a refreshed interior feel and improved infotainment responsiveness compared to earlier generations. Whether you're commuting across Wayne County or loading up for a weekend trip, the Durango R/T interior checks the boxes that matter.

Dodge Durango Reliability and Ownership
