The heart of the 2026 Durango GT is the refined 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, now enhanced with a 48-volt eTorque mild hybrid system. This technology provides seamless start-stop functionality, brief electric torque assistance for improved off-the-line response, and a slight boost in fuel efficiency. Mated to a smooth and responsive 8-speed automatic transmission, this powertrain delivers confident acceleration for merging and passing. The standout feature is the standard Active On-Demand AWD system, managed by the Selec-Terrain dial. Whether navigating slick roads in Snow mode, seeking better throttle response in Sport, or maximizing traction for towing, the Durango GT is prepared for any condition. Its best-in-class 7,700 lb towing capacity ensures it can handle boats, trailers, or campers with ease.
