Comparing the Dodge Durango with Quinn Motors
The 2025 Dodge Durango stands out as a bold, performance-oriented midsize SUV, blending power, practicality, and premium features. For buyers at Quinn Motors exploring the Durango, a look at its closest competitors-the Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade-can highlight the unique strengths of each option. Here's how the Dodge Durango stacks up against these well-regarded midsize SUVs.
Performance and Power
2025 Dodge Durango
The Durango's range of powertrains offers exceptional performance. Starting with a 295-horsepower V6 in the GT trim and climbing to the 360-horsepower V8 in the R/T, the lineup culminates in the 710-horsepower supercharged V8 in the SRT Hellcat trim. This variety ensures that the Durango not only excels in everyday commuting in Yorktown but also delivers remarkable towing capacities, making it an ideal choice for Williamsburg families with boats or trailers. The Durango's performance-focused trims, like the R/T and SRT Hellcat, are virtually unmatched in the segment.
Kia Telluride
The 2025 Kia Telluride relies on a single engine option: a 3.8-liter V6 producing 291 horsepower. While this engine offers smooth performance and reliability, it lacks the thrilling acceleration and towing power of the Durango's V8 options.
Hyundai Palisade
The Hyundai Palisade mirrors the Telluride with its 291-horsepower 3.8-liter V6 engine. Like its Kia sibling, the Palisade focuses on refinement and everyday usability but doesn't provide the robust towing capabilities or performance-oriented configurations available in the Durango.



Interior Space and Comfort



2025 Dodge Durango
The Durango offers a versatile seating layout with either a second-row bench for up to seven passengers or captain's chairs for six. The cabin emphasizes durability and luxury, with options for leather upholstery, ventilated seats, and advanced tech across trims. While the interior is spacious, the third row is slightly smaller than those in the Telluride and Palisade, favoring a balance of passenger and cargo space.
Kia Telluride
Praised for its upscale interior, the Telluride offers plenty of room for passengers in all three rows. The cabin feels high-end, even in lower trims, and provides excellent comfort for long trips. The Telluride's focus is on maximizing passenger space and amenities.
Hyundai Palisade
The Palisade follows suit with a roomy and premium cabin. It offers features like ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, and Nappa leather upholstery in its top trims. It's slightly more luxurious than the Telluride, catering to buyers who want a high-end feel without the performance focus of the Durango.
Technology Features
2025 Dodge Durango
The Durango boasts a cutting-edge 10.1-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto across all trims. High-end models like the SRT Hellcat feature premium options such as a 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, wireless phone charging, and advanced navigation. The tech is intuitive and tailored for both daily commutes and road trips.
Kia Telluride
The Telluride also features a 10.25-inch touchscreen in its lower trims, with a larger 12.3-inch display on upper trims. Its tech suite is competitive, offering wireless smartphone integration and plenty of USB ports throughout the cabin. The Telluride matches the Durango in functionality but focuses more on passenger convenience than driver-centric performance features.
Hyundai Palisade
The Palisade mirrors the Telluride's tech offerings but adds unique options like a driver intercom system and enhanced driver assistance features. Its tech focus leans heavily into family-friendly utility, making it a great choice for tech-savvy households.



Towing and Capability



2025 Dodge Durango
The Durango is the clear leader in towing, offering up to 8,700 pounds of towing capacity when equipped with the 5.7-liter V8 or the 6.2-liter supercharged V8. Even the V6 models provide solid towing performance for smaller trailers. This makes the Durango a versatile option for adventurers or those in Hampton with heavy-duty needs.
Kia Telluride
The Telluride's maximum towing capacity is 5,500 pounds, adequate for light towing but far below what the Durango offers.
Hyundai Palisade
The Palisade matches the Telluride with a 5,500-pound towing capacity, keeping it in line with other family-focused SUVs but behind the Durango in capability.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 Dodge Durango is an excellent choice for buyers who need an SUV that blends powerful performance, advanced tech, and impressive towing abilities. Its robust lineup of engines and high-performance trims like the R/T and SRT Hellcat make it stand out in a class where many competitors, like the Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade, focus solely on comfort and family-friendly features. While the Telluride and Palisade excel in interior space and luxury, the Durango offers a unique mix of utility and power that makes it a top contender for those in Gloucester and who want more than just an everyday family SUV.
