At up to 19 MPG combined, the 2013 Dodge Durango 4WD is about average for a Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD — that class averages about 18.9 MPG across 1,684 EPA-tested versions, so it's middle-of-the-road for its size.
Real-world MPG vs the EPA number
The EPA figures above come from a standardized dynamometer test, not the open road — real-world MPG typically runs a bit lower depending on your driving, climate and terrain. That's true of every car on this site, old or new.
EPA updated its fuel-economy equations again for model year 2017 — mostly affecting hybrids and turbocharged engines — and recalculated 2011-2016 ratings to match, in some cases 1-2 MPG lower. The number above already reflects that update.
For its most efficient trim, the EPA estimates about $3,300 a year in fuel (15,000 miles) — roughly $275 a month.
