Dodge Introduces Limited-Edition Mopar ‘22 Durango

-

Dodge is adding a new special edition to the Durango lineup -- this one with Mopar badging. We’re talking about the new 2022 Durango Mopar Limited Edition - and by limited we mean limited. Only 250 models of the lowvolume, high-performanc­e model will be available, 200 of those earmarked for the U.S. while fifty are slated for Canada.

2022 Dodge Durango Mopar Edition

The Durango limited edition features quality-tested, factory-backed performanc­e parts and accessorie­s from the Mopar Custom Shops, including a custom blue stripe, badging and instrument panel.

The Mopar model is available exclusivel­y on the 2022 Dodge Durango R/T AWD with the Plus Group and Tow N Go Package.

“Our new, limited-edition Mopar ‘22 Durango features exclusive Mopar performanc­e parts and accessorie­s.’” said Mark Bosanac, North America vice president, Mopar Service, Parts & Customer Care. “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.”

Each buyer will an owner kit that includes a custom-made, personaliz­ed metal certificat­e of authentici­ty with serialized vehicle-build number and a special vehicle rendering by the Mopar Design team.

Exterior

Owners can choose between two exterior colors: DB Black or White Knuckle. Exclusive exterior features include:

◊ Offset asymmetric­al Mopar Blue stripe that runs on the driver’s side from the front fascia to the rear fascia

◊ Mopar Blue “Mopar” front grille badge ◊ Mopar Blue “Brembo”-branded brake calipers

Interior

Exclusive highlights in the cabin include a Mopar ‘22 instrument-panel badge with serialized build number, leather and suede front seats with a two-tone Mopar logo embroidere­d into the seat backs along with Mopar Blue accent stitching in seats, instrument panel, center console and doors. The interior also features a Mopar pedal kit and Mopar all-weather floor mats.

Performanc­e and Towing

Under the hood, the 2022 Durango is powered by a 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine that delivers 360-horsepower and mated to the standard TorqueFlit­e eight-speed automatic transmissi­on. Dodge says the Tow N Go Package provides best-in-class towing of 8,700 pounds along with an increased top speed of 145 mph, Track, Sport, Snow and Tow drive modes and a retuned SRT-performanc­e exhaust. The Mopar ‘22 also comes with Dodge Performanc­e Pages, retuned SRT active noise cancellati­on, electronic limitedsli­p differenti­al and SRT active damping suspension.

Standard 20-by-10-inch “Lights Out” wheels ride on Pirelli tires and provide a menacing look, while Dodge says a Mopar 1-inch lowering kit delivers improved handling, tighter cornering and quicker response.

Availabili­ty and Pricing

Dealer orders open in first quarter of 2022 with vehicles expected to arrive in select Dodge dealership­s next summer. The Mopar package comes with an MSRP of $3,995
