Dodge Journey Cars
The Dodge Journey is a versatile mid-size SUV that offers a spacious interior, smooth ride, and impressive fuel economy. It's an ideal vehicle for families or anyone who needs extra cargo space.
Under the hood, the Dodge Journey comes with two engine options: a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 173 horsepower or a more powerful 3.6-liter V6 engine that produces 283 horsepower. Both engines are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is also available for those who need extra traction on slippery roads.
The interior of the Dodge Journey is roomy and comfortable, with seating for up to seven passengers. The second row can slide back and forth to maximize legroom, while the third-row seats can fold flat to create additional cargo space. There are plenty of storage compartments throughout the cabin, including a bin under the front passenger seat.
In terms of technology, the Dodge Journey comes standard with a 4.3-inch touchscreen display, six-speaker audio system, and USB port. Higher trims offer larger touchscreens, satellite radio, rear-seat entertainment systems, and more.
Safety features include stability control, antilock brakes, active head restraints, and side-curtain airbags. Higher trims add features like blind-spot monitoring and rear parking sensors.
One of the standout features of the Dodge Journey is its impressive fuel economy. The base four-cylinder engine gets an EPA-estimated 12 km/L in city driving conditions and 17 km/L on highways. The V6 engine gets slightly lower fuel economy but still delivers respectable numbers.
Overall, the Dodge Journey is a solid choice for anyone in need of a reliable mid-size SUV with plenty of room for passengers and cargo. Its fuel-efficient engines make it particularly appealing for those who frequently drive long distances or in stop-and-go traffic conditions found in urban centers like Auckland or Wellington.
