SRT is the high end in the Durango lineup, notes the review, and includes plenty of features as standard options to keep the driver and passengers comfortable. These include leather and faux suede seats with heating and ventilation in the front, heated second-row captain’s chairs and three-zone automatic climate control. The foldaway third row provides ample space for gear or people.
