The 2009 Dodge Journey, an all-new crossover, just made its debut at the 2007 LA Auto Show. The Journey is based on the Avenger platform and mixes a minivan’s practicality with the capabilities of SUV with the hopes of becoming the “perfect” crossover vehicle. The look of the Journey is obviously a Dodge, with the front face boasting the ram’s head grille and quad head lamps.
The Dodge Journey comes with three engine options: a 2.4L 4-speed automatic getting 19 city/25 hwy, a 2.7L V6 4-speed automatic with flex fuel options getting 17 city/23 hwy, and a 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic that gets 16 city/23 hwy. For those who care more about convenience than performance, the Journey also comes with plenty of cargo space, including hidden in-seat/in-floor storage and three upholstery options.
