Which Dodge Durango has ventilated seats?

Ventilated front seats are available on higher-end Durango trims when the vehicle is equipped with the appropriate luxury packages; the base SXT generally does not include them. In recent years, you’ll typically find ventilated seats on Citadel and RT configurations when paired with leather seating and a luxury group.


Trims and packages that commonly include ventilated seats


To help shoppers identify which Durangos might have this feature, note that ventilated seats are tied to leather seating and optional luxury packages. The following trims are where they most often appear when equipped accordingly:



  • Citadel — premium leather/Nappa seating with access to the Luxury or Premium Group that can include ventilated front seats.

  • RT — available with leather seating and the Luxury/Premium Group that adds ventilated front seats.


Availability can vary by model year and market, so always check the current spec sheet or window sticker.


How to verify on a specific vehicle


Before inspecting a vehicle, use these steps to confirm ventilated front seats are included:



  1. Check the window sticker or Monroney for "Ventilated Front Seats" or "Ventilated seats."

  2. Look for the Leather/Nappa seating option in combination with a Luxury or Premium Group package on the build sheet.

  3. If buying used, request the original window sticker or a VIN-specific build/option sheet from the dealer or seller.

  4. Confirm with the dealer or seller that the feature is active with the seat cooling system.


Note: Even when ventilated seats are listed, some model years might have them as part of a limited package or as a late-availability option. Confirm with the dealer.


Summary


Ventilated front seats in the Dodge Durango are a feature reserved for higher-end trims paired with leather seating and luxury-package content. In practice, look for Citadel and RT configurations with the Luxury or Premium Group to find ventilated seats, and always verify via the window sticker or dealer documentation for the exact model year you’re considering.
