TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2020 Dodge Durango takes on family crossover SUVs with brute strength, and some old-school compromises.

The 2020 Kia Sorento skimps on third-row seating, but in all other respects it’s a more than respectable crossover SUV.

TCC Likes

Tough truck looks
Muscle car performance
High-quality interior

Upmarket feel inside and out
Terrific ride quality
Responsive, natural steering

TCC Dislikes

Old-school safety scores
Poor fuel economy
Stiff ride at times

Second row sits too low
Don’t bother with the base engine
Mediocre fuel economy
