With all the talk of hybrids and auto-makers ongoing commitments to creating eco-friendly vehicles, Dodge is proud to introduce to you their first volume production hybrid; the 2009 Dodge Durango 5.7L HEMI Hybrid.
The Dodge Durango HEMI Hybrid, available this fall, utilizes the most technologically advanced two-mode hybrid powertrain – jointly developed by Chrysler, Daimler, GM and BMW. This marks the first of Dodge’s efforts at providing fuel efficient vehicle technology. So what does this mean for you?
It’s all about doing more with less - which is why you’ll get 40% greater fuel efficiency in the city, 25% overall… and 100% of Dodge SUV power, capability, and comfort. The Durango HEMI Hybrid touts an estimated 385 horsepower and an impressive towing capability at 6,000 lbs. Plus, you’ll get seating for 8 and best-in-class* cargo capacity behind the 2nd row.
This hybrid technology is designed specifically in this case to provide better fuel economy without sacrificing “real” SUV capability, and will likely serve as a template for future hybrid powertrain design in the automotive industry.
If you are interested in checking it out for yourself, the vehicle is now featured on the main Dodge.com site and on the Red Letter Dodge blog. As always, I will be around to answer any of your questions.
Thanks,
Will

Only in the '09 Durango and Aspen will be available with this setup, however, the manager of the Hybrid Powertrain Program, Abdullah Bazzi, has hinted that this technology will likely be paired with other future nameplates... no official word yet though on timing or specific vehicles.

It should be similar at least, at the unveiling of the 09 ram they seemed pretty sure they will release the 2010 ram with an available hybrid system.

At this point it has been confirmed (as i''m sure you may have heard) that the 2010 Ram will come with an available HEMI Hybrid option.
In other news, official pricing was announced for the ''09 Durango HEMI hybrid this week as starting out at $45,340 and can now be viewed on the Durango hybrid vehicle page. In addition to the pricing, it was also announced that customers are expected to recieve an estimated tax credit of $1,800.
Cheers,
Will
