The muscle-SUV 2019 Dodge Durango offers engaging handling and powerful engines, but it's falling behind in terms of safety.

Pros
Muscle truck looks
Muscle truck performance
Upscale interior
Surprisingly fun
Rubber-burning Durango SRT

Cons
Concerning safety scores
Ride can be stiff
V-8s guzzle fuel
Starting to show its age

No major changes for 2019.Newly optional 19-speaker Harman Kardon stereo.With its aging platform, the 2019 Dodge Durango remains the stubborn outlier in the ever more car-based three-row SUV segment, offering not just a healthy V6 engine but two stout V8s, class-leading towing capacity and muscle-car styling cues.

Pros
Third-row seats are surprisingly spacious
Large touchscreen tech interface is one of the best in class
Towing ability is exceptional for the class
Has real off-road capabilities with 4WD and low-range gearing

Cons
Fuel economy is below average, especially with the V8
Bigger and bulkier to drive than rival crossovers

The name sounds odd, but the Touareg offers a comfortable ride and spirited performance—something we all can understand. Its 3.6-liter V-6 makes 280 hp and is mated to an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The Touareg is large, comfortable, and solid—plus it’s equally at home both on and off the pavement. A standard touchscreen infotainment display is functional but dated; the optional adaptive cruise control and automated emergency braking, however, are well engineered and effective.
