New, Smaller SUV to Replace Dodge Durango in 2027, Report Says

The Dodge Durango’s days appear to be numbered. Remember, it’s one of the oldest vehicles on the road right now, with the current generation dating back to 2011. Sales are still fairly strong, but the company is reportedly planning to retire it within three years.

According to AutoForecast Solutions, the Durango will end production in Detroit in the summer of 2027. Not only that, but it will be replaced by a new, smaller SUV to be built in Windsor, Ontario.

Just this week, the United Auto Workers (UAW) union claimed that Stellantis is trying to move production of the Durango out of the U.S. The Windsor plant currently manufactures Chrysler minivans as well as the brand new Dodge Charger Daytona EV.

The future SUV, AutoForecast Solutions predicts, will be called Stealth. U.S. publication Motor Trend said the same thing a year ago. The Stealth sports coupe was a rebadged Mitsubishi 3000GT that Dodge sold from 1991-1996.

Another report from Automotive News claims the Durango’s successor will offer five seats instead of seven and ride on Stellantis’ STLA Large platform, which can accommodate both internal combustion engines and electric motors.

In addition to minivans and the latest Charger, this new Dodge model would be built alongside an all-new Chrysler product, most likely the brand’s first EV we’ve been promised for a while. It’s expected to look considerably different from the Airflow concept.

The Car Guide will keep you posted when more information becomes available including official announcements by the automaker, so watch this space.
