Despite Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ plans to introduce a new three-row SUV based on the next-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee, the automaker has no plans top phase out the Durango which shares its bones with the current Grand Cherokee. In fact, an updated Durango has been spotted testing and will likely arrive in the next year or two.
But if you’re in the market for a big, burly family hauler, then the current Durango is definitely worth a look at, especially in SRT trim.
