2010 Dodge Journey in Summerville, GA - $0

The versatile Dodge Journey crossover moves into 2018 with a lineup that has been streamlined to four models: SE, SXT, Crossroad and GT. New for 2018 is standard three-row seating on all Journey models. In addition, all Crossroad models now feature new “Black Noise” 19-inch aluminum wheels, which provide a dramatic styling statement.

This year, the popular Blacktop Package is available on Journey SE, joining SXT and GT models. The Blacktop Package includes black roof rails, Gloss Black exterior mirrors, fascia applique, grille, 17-inch aluminum wheels on SE models and 19-inch aluminum wheels on SXT and GT models.

Base power is generated by a 2.4L four-cylinder engine joined to a 40TES four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. The top-of-the-line GT is equipped with the automaker’s award-winning 3.6L Pentastar V-6 engine and bolted to a 62TE six-speed automatic with overdrive. All-wheel drive is an available option.

Journey’s all-wheel-drive system works on demand, driving only the front wheels until power to the rear wheels is needed to maximize fuel efficiency. All-wheel drive also is used on dry pavement between speeds of 25 and 65 mph to enhance handling during performance driving. When traveling faster than 25 mph, the all-wheel-drive system sends torque to the rear wheels when cornering with the throttle open to make the crossover turn more easily, which makes the handling more neutral.

The Dodge crossover’s chassis architecture delivers a confidence-inspiring driving experience coupled with precise steering for maximum control. Strong torsional stiffness in the steering column intermediate shaft isolator, in conjunction with Journey’s rear suspension geometry, delivers precise steering feel and a connected steering response. R/T’s more aggressive suspension tuning gives a sportier ride and even greater handling precision for when the roads turn twisty.

Inside the passenger cabin, Journey offers levels of refinement not typically found in the crossover market. A beautifully crafted one-piece soft-touch instrument panel sets the tone. A standard Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) is positioned in the center of the gauge cluster, which has a full-color display backlit in Dodge red lights, giving it a soft glow. Integrated center stack bezels are sculpted, and designers softened the radius to make more room for the driver’s knees. The cushioned center console armrest lifts to reveal a larger center storage bin with a 12-volt outlet and USB port where owners can hook up their MP3/iPod charging connections and hide them out of sight. Engineers also developed many treatments to reduce noise, vibration and harshness. One example is the Journey’s dual dash silencer, which isolates the cabin, making for a nice, quiet ride.

The interior also offers best-in-class utility. Second-row and available third-row seats fold flat for plenty of cargo space. Second-row seats recline and have available integrated child booster seats. There’s a large front storage bin with side nets and a multi-function three-spoke steering wheel with standard integrated cruise and radio controls. There are also innovative removable storage bins in the floor ahead of the second-row seats, which can hold everything from muddy clothes to soda cans, and conceal valuables such as a camera, laptop or purse.
