Used 2023 Dodge Durango for Sale nearCharlotte, NC

How much does the 2023 Dodge Durango cost?

Prices are up 6.33% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 4,248 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2023 Dodge Durango a good car?

Yes — the 2023 Dodge Durango earns a 4.67/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. 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 owners 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 muscle-car personality, not a soft-focus family hauler. If you want space, attitude, and available V8 power, it fits the brief well. The market also shows 36.5% good or great deals, so there are still some attractive listings to chase.

Is the 2023 Dodge Durango reliable?

Owners rate it 4.67/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a vehicle that owners find dependable in the ways that matter most to them, especially when it comes to styling, performance, spaciousness, and ride comfort. The expert evaluation also emphasizes that the Durango’s long-running formula has been refined over time, which supports the sense that it’s a familiar, proven design.

The ownership picture is helped by the five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty, which is a useful cushion for used buyers. Even so, you should still budget for the usual wear-and-tear risks that come with a higher-mileage SUV, especially if you’re shopping one of the more powerful versions.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any listing you’re serious about, because accident-free status is only a starting point. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection if you’re looking at a higher-trim or higher-performance example, since those versions tend to carry more equipment and more complexity. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and whether the vehicle’s features work as expected.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base SXT is the most stripped-down version, while higher trims add more comfort and luxury equipment. The Citadel stands out for its more upscale cabin features, including Nappa leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated second-row captain’s chairs.
• Powertrain: You can get the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, the 5.7-liter Hemi V8, the 6.4-liter Hemi V8, or the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 in the Hellcat. The V6 is the efficiency play, while the V8s trade fuel economy for much stronger performance.
• Safety package: Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert are standard, but forward collision warning is only standard on the Citadel and part of an option package on other models. Lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking are also standard only on the Citadel and aren’t available at all on the base SXT.
• Infotainment: SXT and GT models get an 8.4-inch touchscreen with wired Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, and Bluetooth. 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 V6 with rear-wheel drive is rated at 21 mpg combined. The 5.7-liter V8 returns 17 mpg combined, the 6.4-liter V8 gets 15 mpg combined, and the supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat is rated at 13 mpg combined.

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 gives you the Durango’s core three-row utility at the lowest price. It’s the trim to consider if you want the shape, space, and personality without paying for extras, but it’s also the one with the biggest feature gaps.
• GT: This is the best-value choice for many shoppers because it adds more everyday appeal while staying below the V8 trims. It also can be dressed up with appearance packages, so you can get a more aggressive look without jumping to a performance model.
• R/T: Choose this if you want the classic V8 Durango experience. The 5.7-liter Hemi gives you the strongest blend of power and character before you get into the more expensive performance trims.
• Citadel: This is the comfort-focused pick. It adds the most upscale cabin treatment in the lineup and is also the trim where more driver-assistance tech becomes standard.
• SRT 392: This is the performance-first choice if you want serious speed and the most aggressive driving experience short of the Hellcat. It’s the trim for buyers who care more about acceleration and chassis hardware than fuel economy.

The safety-package note matters here: forward collision warning, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking are not broadly standard across the lineup, and the Citadel is the trim where the safety equipment is most complete.

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 still move quickly on the right listing.

• Deal availability: 36.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,248 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 6.33% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 86.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $29,842, 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 $33,574 sits slightly above last year's $31,576.

That upward move suggests the Durango has held buyer interest well enough to support pricing. For a future seller, that’s a useful sign: if demand stays steady, you may have a better shot at preserving value than you would with a slower-moving SUV.

The model’s mix of strong styling, performance, and space helps keep it relevant in the used market. Listings with cleaner histories and desirable equipment should be easier to move, especially if they’re priced near the market average rather than at the top of the range.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, 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 IIHS original-format moderate front overlap, side, and roof strength tests, but it receives a Marginal score in the driver-side small overlap front test. It earns a four-star overall safety rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in side crash, four-star ratings in frontal crash and rollover for RWD versions, and a three-star rollover rating for AWD models.

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 available as part of an option package 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 main caution here is that advanced safety tech is limited unless you move up the lineup, so you should pay close attention to the exact trim and option content on any used example you’re considering.

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:

• 36.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 6.33% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The return of the Durango SRT Hellcat makes this year especially notable for buyers who want the most extreme performance version in the lineup.

The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of current-market availability, owner satisfaction, and standout performance, the 2023 is the year to target. If you’re more price-sensitive, you can still shop nearby model years, but the 2023 gives you a compelling balance of inventory depth and desirable equipment, especially if you’re focused on the Durango’s V8 personality.
