Whether drivers need their vehicles to haul boats or building supplies, muscle under the hood is important for heavy duty travels. Strength is available in nearly every Dodge vehicle, but we’re taking a look at exactly which model tows the most on and off the road.
2017 Dodge towing capacity comparison
Vehicle | Maximum towing capacity |
---|---|
2017 Dodge Durango | 3,265 kg |
2017 Dodge Grand Caravan | 1,633 kg |
2017 Dodge Journey | 1,134 kg |
2017 Dodge Challenger | 454 kg |
2017 Dodge Charger | 454 kg |
As shown in the chart above, the 2017 Dodge Durango undeniably tows the most out of the Dodge lineup. When outfitted with its 5.7-litre HEMI VVT V-8 engine, the Durango gets best-in-class strength with its 360-horsepower performance and 390 lb-ft of torque. This combination allows the SUV to tow up to 3,265 kg (7,200 lb), which tops all other vehicles in its class. Even when drivers opt for the Durango’s highly lauded 3.6-litre VVT V-6 engine, the SUV can deliver class-leading V-6 strength with its 2,812-kg towing capacity while achieving best-in-class fuel economy.
A surprising second place holder is the Grand Caravan. With the ability to tow up to 1,633 kg, the minivan delivers another best-in-class towing capacity for its Dodge family. The Journey comes in third place with its 1,134-kg towing capacity, which is made possible with the crossover’s award-winning 3.6-litre Pentastar VVT V-6 engine.
