The Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat was already confirmed to return yet again for 2026, and Dodge has now confirmed the lineup will include a Jailbreak model.
The Jailbreak model removes standard restrictions on build customization, allowing for more mixing and matching of options.
Orders for 2026 models open on August 11, and Dodge says new models are expected to arrive at dealerships in the fourth quarter of this year.
Dodge confirmed in late May that the Durango SRT Hellcat would return for 2026, despite having a class-action lawsuit reopened against the company for reviving the Hellcat model after Dodge initially promised it would be around for just one year. The company has now confirmed that when the brash and brutish SUV comes back for 2026, it will do so with a Jailbreak version.
If you haven't heard of Dodge's Jailbreak program before, it's effectively just the company uncorking the stops when it comes to customization. There are six different wheel options, six exterior paint colors, six badge colors, five stripe options, and four brake caliper colors.
Inside the car, there are five seat colors, three seating configurations, and four options for seatbelt colors. There's also a special badge stamped into the carbon fiber to denote the Jailbreak version.
Unlike some previous Jailbreak models—such as the 2022 Charger and Challenger Jailbreak editions, which got a 10-horsepower increase over the standard Hellcat models—the new versions keep to their 710-horsepower rating. That power figure is achieved using Dodge's 6.2-liter supercharged V-8, which rockets the three-row SUV to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds.
According to Dodge, order books for the 2026 model will open on August 11. The new version is expected to begin arriving at dealerships sometime in the fourth quarter of this year. Official pricing hasn't been announced yet, but the 2025 model starts at $86,990 with special editions landing at $103,285, and the 2026 version shouldn't be much different.
