Dodge Durango gets 2014 facelift, interior upgrades
Dodge has facelifted the 2014 Durango, debuting at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
Frontal changes include LED running lamps, “floating” crosshair grille and a different front bumper. The rear has been redesigned with Dodge’s signature LED “racetrack” taillamps. In terms of wheels, there are now new 18-inch and 20-inch designs. Don’t get too excited about the aggressive paint-job though, as it is unlikely that all trim levels will get the same chrome-less monochromatic look.
Inside the cabin, the Durango finally gets Dodge’s other signature option — the 8.4-inch touchscreen for multimedia and navigation functions. Other optional features include a heated steering wheel, heated second-row seating and a Blu-Ray player capable of running individually on the twin rear monitors. The gear shifter has also been replaced by a rotary dial.
On the mechanical front, Dodge has fitted an 8-speed automatic transmission as standard for both existing engines, namely the 290 hp 3.6-litre V6 and the 360 hp 5.7-litre V8, so new buyers should see a mild improvement in acceleration and fuel economy.
Expect the 2014 Durango to reach showrooms in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar and other other GCC markets by the beginning of next year.
Keep track of future prices and updates in the Dodge Durango buyer guide.

Amazing, combines sporty looks, with loads of space, comfy, and techs.
Don’t know about reliability though, well its price isn’t highest in class as well.

This one looks more manly and better choice than people fighting over Pathfinder, Explorer and CX9 in myride forum, they may have a slightly better 3 row, but how many of you always use 7 seats, 8-10 times its a single man driving the seven seater to office.

I agree with V6turbo, how many times a family car is used to the fullest, usually its the single man driving to car. Unless you have the extra cash to fish out for the wife to use it to fish more money for ur kids to be part of a soccer club and so on.
