Used 2023 Dodge Durango for Sale nearSaint Charles, IL

How much does the 2023 Dodge Durango cost?

Prices are up 6.52% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 4,392 listings available, which gives you a decent amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

If you find a listing below $29,839.34, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

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 gas mileage from the V6. The main trade-offs are interior quality concerns, especially in the back seat, and depreciation after purchase.

For you, that means the Durango makes the most sense if you want a three-row SUV with a more aggressive personality than the usual family hauler. It is less compelling if your priority is a polished cabin or maximum long-term value.

With 30.6% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Dodge Durango reliable?

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

The owner feedback points to a vehicle people tend to appreciate for its styling, performance, and spaciousness, while also noting comfort and efficiency from the V6. That combination suggests you can count on the Durango to deliver the character and utility buyers expect from it.

The expert evaluation also supports that dependability story in a practical sense: the Durango’s powertrains are paired with an eight-speed automatic, and the model comes with a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty and a three-year, 36,000-mile basic warranty. That said, the long-running design and mixed ownership impressions mean you should still pay close attention to maintenance history and overall condition on a used example.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any candidate, even if it looks clean on the lot. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are considering a higher-mileage example or one with performance hardware. Focus on condition details that matter most in a used SUV: interior wear, evidence of prior damage, and whether the equipment level matches the trim you think you are buying.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base SXT has the most obvious feature gaps, since forward collision warning is only optional there and the model’s more advanced safety tech is not standard on lower trims. Higher trims add more luxury and convenience, with the Citadel bringing a more upscale cabin and the SRT models adding more distinctive performance-oriented styling.
• Powertrain: The lineup starts with a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, then moves to a 5.7-liter Hemi V8, a 6.4-liter Hemi V8, and a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 in the Hellcat. The V6 is the efficiency play, while the V8s trade fuel economy for much stronger acceleration and a more muscular driving feel.
• 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 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.
• 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 upgrade to 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 is rated at 17 mpg combined, the 6.4-liter V8 at 15 mpg combined, and the supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat 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 makes sense if you want the Durango’s styling and space at the lowest price, but you should be aware that the most advanced driver-assistance features are not standard here.
• GT: This is the better-value choice for many shoppers because it keeps the V6 powertrain while adding more equipment and available appearance packages, including Blacktop styling if you want a more aggressive look.
• R/T: Choose this if you want the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and a stronger performance character without jumping all the way to the high-performance SRT models.
• Citadel: This is the comfort-focused pick, with a more luxurious cabin and the most complete standard safety package in the lineup.
• SRT 392: This is the performance trim if you want the 6.4-liter Hemi V8 and the most serious speed without going to the Hellcat.

The safety-package standout is the Citadel, since it gets the most standard driver-assistance content, while lower trims leave more of that equipment optional or unavailable.

What is the 2023 Dodge Durango's resale value?

The current average of $33,825 sits slightly above last year's $31,754.

That upward move suggests the market is still willing to pay for this model year, which is a positive sign if you plan to sell later. Strong demand usually helps keep a used SUV from dropping too quickly, especially when shoppers still value its styling and available V8 power. The fact that the average price is above last year’s level also suggests the Durango has held interest better than a softening market might otherwise imply.

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 received top Good marks in the original-format moderate front overlap, side, and roof strength tests from IIHS, but it also received a Marginal score in the driver-side small overlap front test. NHTSA gave it a four-star overall safety rating, with five-star side crash results, four-star frontal crash results, and four-star rollover ratings for RWD models; AWD models received 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 safety caveats to keep in mind if you are shopping used.

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:

• 30.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 87.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 6.52% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2023 model year stands out for the return of the Durango SRT Hellcat as a regular production model.

The bottom line: If you want the most distinctive version of the Durango’s current formula, the 2023 is the year to target because it combines strong owner satisfaction, solid inventory, and the Hellcat’s return. If your priority is simply getting the lowest possible price, a nearby model year may be worth comparing, but you should expect to give up some of the 2023-specific appeal.
