Santee Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram

May 8, 2026

America doesn’t do anything halfway, and neither does Dodge.

To mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Dodge debuted something special at the 2026 New York International Auto Show: the 2026 Dodge Durango GT America250 Edition. This is a rolling tribute to the boldness, grit, and unapologetic attitude that built this country, and the brand that’s carried that spirit under the hood for decades.

American-themed exterior and interior upgrades set it apart from every other Durango on the road, while performance enhancements are unmistakably Dodge: fast, fierce, and impossible to ignore. Every detail was designed to honor American automotive heritage without sacrificing the modern muscle you want from your Dodge.

“This Dodge Durango A250 is a celebration of American performance, American attitude, and, fittingly, America’s 250th birthday,” said Dodge CEO Matt McAlear. “Dodge has always stood for American muscle: speed, strength, and the unapologetic pursuit of automotive excitement. Today, we celebrate that legacy and the road ahead.”

Orders are officially open for the 2026 Dodge Durango GT Plus AWD A250 Edition, with a starting U.S. MSRP of $49,590 (excluding tax, title, and fees). This is a limited-edition piece of American history, and it won’t be available for long.

Dodge is celebrating America’s 250th anniversary this summer with the introduction of the 2026 Dodge Durango America250 (A250) edition, infusing Dodge’s unmistakable American muscle with special-edition content that celebrates power, heritage and patriotic grit.
