ABOUT THE DODGE DURANGO PURSUIT

The Dodge Durango Pursuit is a law-enforcement-spec three-row SUV derived from the civilian Durango, built specifically for police fleet use. Aimed squarely at municipal and state agencies that need a body-on-frame-alternative with V8 muscle and SUV utility, it occupies a niche corner of the full-size pursuit-rated SUV segment. Civilian shoppers rarely encounter it on dealer lots, but used examples do surface on the secondary market.

VERDICT

The 2022 Dodge Durango Pursuit has not been crash-tested by NHTSA, so it carries no Safety Index. Its safety record here is built from 6 recalls and 52 owner complaints on file, giving it a moderate recall and complaint burden.

WHAT REVIEWERS SAY

Reviewers generally note that the Durango Pursuit carries over the civilian Durango's broad-shouldered road presence and V8 powertrain character, offering confident straight-line performance and reasonable interior space. Most assessments acknowledge the police-spec calibration affects ride tuning and that materials and refinement reflect fleet-grade priorities rather than consumer-market polish.
