Durango vs. Tahoe: Performance
You don't become America's Most Powerful Standard Three-Row SUV with Best-In-Class available towing without having some serious power. The Dodge Durango has earned these honors by offering up to 8,700 pounds with its 6.4-liter HEMI® SRT® V8 engine that produces 475 horsepower for a zero to 60 mph time in 4.4 seconds.
With the Chevy Tahoe, your maximum towing capacity is up to 6,600 pounds. The Tahoe also produces just 455 horsepower, and its zero to 60 mph rating is 5.7 seconds. The Tahoe also fails to offer an option for engines that isn't a V8, so you have no other options to consider. In the Durango, your options include a V8 and a V6 engine option.
