Specs, explained
The 3.7L 6-cylinder is what moves it, with rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Rated at 14.7 L/100 km combined, it needs around 44 litres for a 300 km round trip. A 300 km weekend costs about $68.37 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,200 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Size and space
Being an SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well. The length is 5.13 m. Check the size of a tight parking spot.
Who rents the Durango
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people.
Drive it on your own roads
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Durango for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $227.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Picking a year and a trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
