Building upon more than 10 years of low-volume, factory-backed vehicle customization, Mopar this week announced a new limited-production vehicle featuring a special-edition package of unique quality-tested, factory-backed performance parts and accessories from the Mopar Custom Shop—the Mopar ’22 Dodge Durango. The new performance SUV, which was on display November 2-5 in the Mopar booth at the SEMA Show, will arrive in 2022 in conjunction with the 85th anniversary of Mopar.
The Dodge Durango continues to demonstrate its proven performance with a combination of uncompromised utility, advanced technology, class-leading towing, confident driving dynamics, and iconic styling. With the ability to seat up to seven in its three rows of seats, the Durango maintains its claim of being a family-friendly SUV equipped with Dodge muscle car attitude.
“Our new, limited-edition Mopar ’22 Durango features exclusive Mopar performance parts and accessories,’” said Head of Mopar Service, Parts & Customer Care (North America) Mark Bosanac. “Unlike any other aftermarket offerings, our performance parts and accessories are jointly developed and quality tested with the product engineering team, and they are backed by the factory.”
Available exclusively on the 2022 Dodge Durango R/T AWD with the Plus Group and Tow N Go Package, the Mopar ’22 Durango includes exterior and interior features only available on this limited-production, Mopar-branded performance SUV.

Inside the driver-oriented cockpit, exclusive appointments include:

Performance
The Mopar ’22 Durango is powered by the legendary 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 engine rated at 360 horsepower and mated to the standard TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission.Delivering improved performance is the Tow N Go Package that provides best-in-class towing of 8,700 pounds; an increased top speed of 145 mph; Track, Sport, Snow, and Tow drive modes; and a retuned SRT-performance exhaust with an unmistakable iconic Dodge exhaust rumble. The package is also equipped with Performance Pages, retuned SRT active noise cancellation, electronic limited-slip differential, and SRT active damping suspension.
Standard 20-by-10-inch “Lights Out” wheels ride on Pirelli tires and provide a menacing look, while a Mopar 1-inch lowering kit delivers improved handling, tighter cornering, and quicker response.
Each buyer will receive an owner kit that features a custom-made, personalized metal certificate of authenticity with a serialized vehicle-build number and a special rendering of the vehicle by the Mopar Design team.
Dealer orders will be available in the first quarter of 2022, with vehicles slated to arrive in select Dodge dealerships in the US and Canada in summer 2022. Production is limited to 250 units—200 vehicles for the US market and 50 vehicles for Canada.
