2024 Dodge Durango SRT 392 AlcHemi is the first and final model of the V8 SUV

The Dodge Durango is getting a series of "Last Call" special editions similar to the Charger and Challenger muscle cars.

The Last Call Durango will span both the 2024 and 2025 model years and will roll out through the end of 2024, the first of which was unveiled Tuesday in the form of the 2024 Durango SRT 392 AlcHemi. Dodge has not revealed which version it will apply to, but there should be at least one of each of the V-8s available in the Durango (including the 5.7-liter and 6.4-liter naturally aspirated units and the supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat).

The name Alchemi is a modern-day reference to alchemy, which means turning ordinary metals into gold, and here the yellow stripes and yellow brake calipers represent yellow metal. Other special touches include 20-inch wheels with a satin black finish, black exhaust tips, blacked-out badges, an interior dressed up with yellow and silver accent stitching, and carbon fiber trim pieces.

The first last-call model, the Durango SRT 392 AlcHemi, will be available in just 1,000 units, 250 in each of four exterior colors: Diamond Black, Destroyer Gray, Vapor Gray, and White The four exterior colors are Diamond Black, Destroyer Gray, Vapor Gray, and White Knuckle, and 250 units of each are planned. Based on the Durango SRT392 Premium, the price will be $3,595 more: the 6.4-liter V8 engine will remain unchanged at 475 hp.

Production will begin in April, with the first examples reaching dealers in May.

Dodge's parent company, Sterantis, has also ended its V-8 offerings elsewhere. The Charger and Challenger muscle cars, along with the related Chrysler 300, were already discontinued last month. Ram, also under the Sterantis brand, will discontinue the V-8 from the 1500 starting with the 2025 model year. A special edition 1500 TRX was launched in 2024 to mark the end of the Hellcat V-8 in pickup trucks.

Although Durango is about to lose its V-8, its nameplate is expected to live on into a new generation. A UAW document that surfaced late last year outlines some of the Sterantis' production plans and includes details of a redesigned Durango, code-named D6U, which is expected to go into production sometime in 2026.
