Dodge has announced that the 2018 Dodge Durango R/T will have the same aggressive face as the more powerful Durango SRT. That means the Durango R/T will have the same front fascia, hood, lower valence, and LED fog lamps that debuted on the 2018 Durango SRT earlier this year.
The Durango R/T’s hood features a center air inlet duct flanked by heat extractors, while the front lower valence now features a new cold-air duct system. 2018 Durango GT models equipped with the Blacktop or Brass Monkey appearance package can also get the more aggressive hood as an option.
