Dodge Durango SRT 392 Review / The Fast & Loud Family Hauler
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июн 2024
- There’s nothing quite like the sound of a big V8 engine. Better enjoy it while you still can as the auto industry shifts to electrification. But for the time being, you can still get a big, 3-row SUV with the thumping heart of a lion. So how does the Durango SRT 392 fare as a family hauler?
What an engine this SUV has. It is a 6.4L naturally aspirated Hemi V8 that produces 475 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque (354 kW & 637 Nm). Although the Durango SRT tips the scales at 2,439 kg (5,378 lbs), the engine allows this heavy SUV to blast out of corners like a bullet. There’s power everywhere in the rpm range which is accompanied by the rumble of the V8 engine. This Durango even has launch control. When’s the last time you saw that in a 3-row SUV? Dodge claims a quick 4.7 second sprint to 60 mph from a stop. With this much power, it is very easy to go from legal to illegal speeds in a blink of an eye. Better yet, with this engine under the hood, the Durango SRT 392 can tow up to 8,700 lbs.
Like many other Dodge products, the Durango SRT is paired with a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission. In Street mode, the transmission shifts are smooth and nearly imperceivable. Switch to Track mode and the shifts become much more ferocious but also faster. The steering wheel mounted shift buttons are quick to react in this mode.
The 2022 Dodge Durango SRT 392 starts at $85,840 CAD ($71,890 USD) including destination. This particular demo vehicle had a few goodies added on and the price was $98,140 CAD ($84,390 USD). But to help things out a bit, Dodge is providing about $10,000 CAD in discounts at the time of filming this review. Pricing for the 2023 Dodge Durango SRT 392 has not been announced at the time of filming either.

Авто/Мото
We had a Durango RT for several years and it was a great vehicle it just didn’t have the giddy up it needed to match its aggressive looks. We traded recently to a new SRT and boy that’s how they should be all built! Now performance matches it’s bold looks. Sad to see these going away.
Did the exact same, had a 2020 r/t and traded for a 2023 392 premium, unbelievable, no regrets
Agreed 360 HP is a joke. I saw a Durango RT get smoked by a Tahoe😂
@@Wins_And_Losses GM's 6.2L doesn't have any issues laying the smack down on a 5.7 Hemi. The GM 5.3L doesn't have much though.
@@troyt5309 Yeah it definitely was a 6.2 the 5.3 only pushes 355 HP
I thoroughly enjoyed your comprehensive review if the 2022 Dodge Durango SRT,
Well done!
Thank you! I hope you have a chance to check out some of my other reviews.
Great review I’ve owed mine for a year custom order brand new , u nailed this review
Thanks!
If I may say you do a awesome job on getting those angles for that SUV.
Yes, you may say that haha. Thanks!
Solid review! I have a 22 SRT with family using third row every day. It works for my purposes. It's easy to switch drive modes to avoid 4cyl mode. Solid Dad SUV if you want a little excitement. Dodge quality is a step down from Euro makers, but price reflects that.
Cool 😎 intro dude!✌🏾
Thanks!
Great review, one of my dream vehicles. It’s one fast grocery getter! Lol
Thanks!!
Luv it
LUV DA REVIEW💯FINNA GET ME 1 SOON😮💨IF U DONT MIND ME ASKIN WHAT EXPORT SETTINGS U USE 4 UR VIDEOS🤨I LUV DA WIDESCREEN
Thanks! I export my videos at 1920 x 960. I'd love to do 4k resolution at the same widescreen format but my camera can't film 4k at 60p and I don't have the money right now to upgrade :/ One day....
I own a 2018 Durango SRT. This model was NHRA certified to do 0-60in 4.4 seconds and 12.9 in the quarter mile. I personally have GPS validated 0-60 times of 4.2 in stock form. Not sure why this data changed, perhaps it was “tweaked” to make the SRT Hellcat look more impressive?
Perhaps, Sadly I can't validate it on my own :(
FYI - Eco mode....Along with lazy shifts the transmission starts in 2nd - its great if you have a dog in the back or groceries. It wont fling dogs or bread all over from the torque
Thanks for the info! I didn't know about the 2nd gear start.
The he'll cat bandit edition should come with a 50 cal under rear bumper
What are those flaps under the front bumper on each side in front of the tires? What is the purpose of them? I have a 2021 Durango GT and both have broke and just hanging there.
Do you know what, I've always wondered that myself. I can only assume they're for some aerodynamic purposes.
Review heilphant SRT Durango Ghoul 426. Color yellow and black or green and white. Or night iron silver. 😮.
What happened with the brake lights at 2:05 ? Looks like they glitched out and made only 1 brake light come on and by the looks of it, the front lights acted up as well and then worked normally.
wow, good catch on the brake lights! Normally, they may look like they're "glitching" because of the frame rate and rolling shutter of the camera. This is my 3rd or 4th night time video so I was a bit more conscious of this and tried to eliminate it. But the brake light thing you mention wouldn't be a cause of this so I'm not sure what happened there...
@@MGReviewsBlog ya I thought at first maybe it was slowed down and the turn signal was just on but i watched a few times and it was at a normal speed and then both the passenger and third brake light activated at the same time. If you look closely to the front you can see the front lights by the ground it looks like they acted up a little bit to when it was doing that. Hopefully it’s not anything serious and just a 1 time thing but at least now you know and have it on video in case anything happens
At this point, i won't be swayed yet by EVs. I will consider hybrids bit not yet EVs. Not until it is proven that it is cleaner (as battery disposal isnt cleaner in it self); infrastructure for charging is better; safety of battery. I do have the RT Durango and i know when everyone of you has an EV, id enjoy my semi classic v8😊
I took a ride in one (I did not drive), and I did not understand why the front seats were so hard. It was almost like sitting on a park bench.
I thought the seats were pretty comfortable for the type that they were. I find GM seats to be the hardest like the Chevy Traverse or GMC Yukon, especially the back seat benches.
@@MGReviewsBlog Interesting. I think my friend had some custom / optional seats. I will have to ask him about those. For my aging back I find the seats in Ford Expedition / Max the most accommodating on long trips. I drove for thousands of miles with no discomfort.
@@mountainhobo Yep, agree with you on the Fords. They are really comfy
man... that's what i thought exactly for some time. that these front seats are made for Spartans and they don't feel as comfortable as you expect them to be. but i drive quite a lot. 64k miles in 2 years. i never ever had any complains from my back about these seats. i never got tired. i drove some rentals sometimes and my back screamed right away. therefore i no longer complain about front seats anymore :)
@@DenisShakhovsky Interesting, thanks.
I see the heilphant V6 Goul SRT question how much power hmmm,?. 😮
I have the rt an its very disappointing i should have no bin cheap an grabbed the srt
👏🏻👏🏻
Very nice SUV. Forcing literally everyone to go full EV will be a disaster on so many levels. At least with PHEV there is realistic range and capability without mining the earth to destruction and overloading power grids worldwide.
Completely agree with you. PHEVs are the best of both worlds in my opinion. Sadly, politicians that write these laws which will ban gasoline engines are too short sighted. It's one thing to force manufacturers to produce only EVs, but if the infrastructure to support them or have enough materials to build the batteries isn't there, then what are going to drive in? Fred Flinstone's car?
I saw another video a few days ago and they could only get this to go to 4.9 seconds??
Unfortunately I don't have any equipment or a safe area to perform my own 0-100 km/h tests so i can only go off the times that Dodge provide in their press releases. There are different factors that can affect 0-100 km/h times. Ambient temperature, tire temperature, prepped or dirty tarmac, 0-60 mph vs 0-100 km/h, etc.
@@MGReviewsBlog Sorry, I was thinking of another car. My fault
The pirrelis are crap got 19k and at the cords on my 21 ddsrt. It now has some excelent continental dws06+ way better. Factory alignment is very negitive agressive on the camber and they just eat tires. Love mine, actually just bought it out at my lease expire.
I also added the zl1addons rock guards. I live in colorado and wanted some protection from the sanded roads. They are minimal work and look good too.
the best fuel economy is
in auto setup
trans in eco
awd in track
In my old Honda Odyssey, with eco mode dropping down to 3 cylinders, it ruined all the engine mounts.
Yikes! Did Honda replace them under warranty?
@MGReviewsBlog The was a big class action suit. Unfortunately, I missed out on it. Then, someone invented the VCF Tuner. It keeps all cylinders on at all times. I bought one and it works. In the Honda, it was called ECO mode.
M.G. review I want me a dodge Durango SRT 392
❤
USA
EVs plugged into a fossil fuel generated electrical grid, isnt saving the environment whatsoever.
It depends on where you live in the world. Here in Vancouver, the majority of electricity generated is from hydro. But you are 100% correct. Other parts of the world still rely on coal or natural gas. Plus producing an electric car isn't as environmentally friendly as producing a gasoline-only vehicle.
@@MGReviewsBlog indeed
Forget electric, it won't work.
Yes, I can do math…but can you translate into American? lol thanks
I'm not American though....
Good luck forcing EV
And we can't pay for gas or cars because of digital currency from china
