There has been a lot of anticipation surrounding the upcoming Dodge Durango for the 2021 model year. The third-generation Dodge Durango (WD) has been on the market since the 2011 model year, the vehicle has been updated heavily since its initial launch. While its platform sibling, the Jeep® Grand Cherokee (WK2) will return in its current form for a short 2021 model year run, it will eventually go to an all-new platform and offer both two and three-row variants for 2022. The Durango, on the other hand, will continue on for a couple more model years in its current form, but it isn’t stopping Dodge from making the Durango even better going into the new model year.
According to our dealer friends, the ordering process for the current 2020 Dodge Durango model will end at the end of this month. So if you are a fan of the current model and want to order a 2020 model to your own liking, this is your last chance. Dodge will officially open up ordering for the updated 2021 model, next month.
