Does the Dodge Durango 2013 have 3rd row seating?

Yes. The 2013 Dodge Durango includes a third-row seat and can accommodate up to seven passengers depending on the configuration.


The 2013 Durango is built as a three-row SUV, a design it adopted with the 2011 refresh. The third row is a two-seat bench that, combined with the second row (which can be either a bench for three or captain’s chairs for two), yields seating for seven or six. The third-row seats fold to free up cargo space when not in use, and the exact configuration varies by trim and options.


Seating configurations available


The following describes the common ways buyers configure seats in the 2013 Durango to balance passenger capacity and cargo space.



  • Seven-passenger setup: second-row bench (three seats) plus third-row bench (two seats) for a total of seven occupants.

  • Six-passenger setup: second-row captain’s chairs (two seats) plus third-row bench (two seats) for a total of six occupants.

  • Flexibility across trims: some trims offer alternative second-row seating options, but all configurations maintain a three-row layout with a two-seat third row.


In all configurations, the third-row seats can be folded down to expand cargo capacity when fewer passengers are aboard.


Accessibility and practicality of the third row


Access to the third row is facilitated by either sliding/removable second-row chairs or by folding mechanisms on the second row, depending on the chosen configuration. The third row provides practical seating for adults or children on shorter trips, and it opens up valuable cargo space when needed. Always verify the exact seating arrangement of a given Durango model, as trims and options influence whether you get bench or captain’s chairs in the second row.


Summary


The 2013 Dodge Durango is designed as a three-row SUV and can seat up to seven passengers in most configurations. The third-row seat is two seats and folds for cargo, while the second row offers either a bench or captain’s chairs, affecting total passenger capacity. Availability of these options depends on the trim and packages chosen.
