Used 2023 Dodge Durango for Sale nearBaton Rouge, LA

How much does the 2023 Dodge Durango cost?

Prices are up 6.75% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 3,845 listings available, which gives you a meaningful amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2023 Dodge Durango a good car?

Yes — owners rate it 4.7/5, and the expert rating is 7.2/10. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Performance.

Owners consistently praise its styling, powerful performance, and spaciousness, and many also call out the comfortable ride and strong V6 fuel economy. On the downside, some reviews point to interior quality concerns, especially in the back seat, along with depreciation after purchase.

That lines up with the Durango’s use case: you’re getting a three-row SUV with a more aggressive personality than most rivals, plus a long-running design that still feels familiar and established. The market also shows 36.0% good or great deals, which suggests there are still attractive opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2023 Dodge Durango reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owners describe it as dependable and trouble-free in everyday use, with several noting confidence in the vehicle over the long term. The expert review also points to the Durango’s established platform and long-running identity, which can be reassuring if you want a familiar SUV rather than a brand-new design.

The Durango also comes with a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty and a three-year, 36,000-mile basic warranty. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that condition and maintenance history matter more than the badge itself, especially on higher-output versions.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Dodge Durango?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any candidate, because a clean listing percentage does not replace a vehicle-specific check. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you’re looking at a higher-mileage example or one with a performance-oriented powertrain. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and whether the equipment level matches what you want to live with every day.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup starts with the SXT and moves up through the GT, R/T, Citadel, and SRT 392. The base SXT is the most stripped-down choice, while the Citadel adds more luxurious features like Nappa leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated second-row captain’s chairs. Some styling upgrades are available on lower trims through appearance packages, but the feature gaps are still most noticeable at the bottom of the range.
• Powertrain: The standard engine is a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 with 293 horsepower, while higher trims add a 5.7-liter Hemi V8, a 6.4-liter naturally aspirated Hemi V8, and a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 in the Hellcat. The V6 is the efficiency-minded choice, while the V8s trade fuel economy for much stronger acceleration.
• Safety package: Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert are standard on all trim levels. Forward collision warning is standard only on the Citadel and optional on the SXT, while lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking are standard only on the Citadel and not available on the base SXT.
• Infotainment: SXT and GT models get an 8.4-inch touchscreen with wired Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, and Bluetooth. The Citadel and the two SRT models get a 10.1-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus the newer Uconnect 5 system.
• Fuel efficiency: The base Pentastar V6 with rear-wheel drive is rated at 21 mpg combined. Fuel economy drops to 17 mpg combined with the 5.7-liter V8, 15 mpg combined with the 6.4-liter V8, and 13 mpg combined with the supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat engine.

Which 2023 Dodge Durango trim should I buy?

The 2023 Dodge Durango is offered in 5 trim levels: SXT, GT, R/T, Citadel, and SRT 392.

Here's the short version:

• SXT: This is the entry point, and it makes the most sense if you want the Durango’s space and styling without paying for the higher-output engines. It’s also the trim where the safety-tech gaps are most obvious, so you should be comfortable with a simpler equipment list.
• GT: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it keeps the V6 powertrain but adds a more appealing mix of everyday equipment and available appearance upgrades. If you want the Durango look without moving into V8 territory, this is the trim to focus on.
• R/T: Choose this if you want the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and the stronger performance that comes with it. It’s the right fit if you care more about muscle-car character than fuel economy.
• Citadel: This is the luxury-leaning choice, with Nappa leather, heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row captain’s chairs, and the most complete safety-tech package. It’s the trim to buy if comfort and equipment matter more than outright performance.
• SRT 392: This is the performance pick, with the 6.4-liter V8 and the most aggressive hardware in the lineup. It suits you if you want the Durango’s biggest performance jump without going all the way to the Hellcat.

The safety package is strongest on the Citadel, while lower trims leave some driver-assistance features unavailable or optional.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Dodge Durango?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but should move quickly when you find the right listing.

• Deal availability: 36.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 3,845 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 6.75% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 84.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $29,840, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Dodge Durango's resale value?

The current average of $32,986 sits slightly above last year's $30,902.

That upward move suggests the Durango has held demand well enough to support pricing, even as it remains an older design. For a future seller, that means a clean, well-equipped example should still attract attention if it’s priced in line with the market.

The strongest resale prospects will likely come from trims and configurations that balance desirability with broad appeal, rather than the most extreme performance versions. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Dodge Durango safe?

The 2023 Dodge Durango earns Good ratings in the original-format moderate front overlap, side, and roof strength tests from IIHS, but it receives a Marginal score in the driver-side small overlap front test. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives it a four-star overall safety rating, with five-star ratings in the side crash test, four-star ratings in the frontal crash test, and four-star rollover ratings for rear-wheel-drive versions; all-wheel-drive models get three-star rollover ratings.

It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.

Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert are standard on all trim levels. Forward collision warning is standard only on the Citadel and optional on other models, while lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking are standard only on the Citadel and not available on the base SXT.

The mixed crash-test results and limited standard driver-assistance content are the main caveats here, so safety-minded shoppers should pay close attention to trim choice and equipment.

Should I buy a 2023 Dodge Durango or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 36.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 6.75% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The return of the Durango SRT Hellcat as a regular production model is the standout headline for this year.

The bottom line: If you want the Durango’s current mix of styling, powertrain variety, and market availability, the 2023 is the one to target. If you’re more price-sensitive, a nearby model year may save you money, but you should compare equipment carefully because the 2023’s trim mix and feature set are part of what makes it appealing.
