The heart of the limited production three-row SUV is a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 that produces a staggering 710 horsepower.
Can an affordable three-row SUV ever be considered collectible? Yes, if it is the SRT Hellcat version of the 2021 Dodge Durango. The one-year only model has been outfitted with all the factory high-performance options the manufacturer has to offer, including a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 that produces 710-horsepower, a beefier suspension, huge Brembo brakes with red calipers, aggressive exterior trim, a free-flowing exhaust and seven electronically controlled drive modes that range from Eco to Sport, Track and Custom.
The result is a seven-passenger, all-wheel-drive vehicle that is faster than most sports cars but can tow up to 8,700 pounds, which is great for any SUV. And, because it will only be offered in 2021, the future value is likely to increase.
