History/Overview
The Journey is Dodge's compact crossover, which was introduced in 2008 as a 2009 model. It has persisted in a single generation while many of its competitors have been redesigned twice.
What's New / Key Changes from Last Year
For 2020, Dodge has scaled back the Journey lineup to two trims, discontinued the V6 engine and made seven-passenger seating standard.
Available Trims
Dodge offers the Journey in Canada Value Package (CVP) and Crossroad trims for 2020. The sole engine is a 2.4L four-cylinder, which comes connected to a four-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.
Standard Features
Journey CVP comes standard with manual dual-zone air conditioning, a six-speaker stereo, 4.3-inch infotainment display, cruise control, passive keyless entry, and aluminum wheels.
Crossroad trim adds a sunroof, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, fog lights, trip computer, automatic climate control, leather seating, LED taillights, 19-inch wheels, a 10-way power driver's seat, and an 8.4-inch infotainment display Dodge says is the largest in the Journey's class.
Key Options
Both trims can be optioned with a popular equipment group. To CVP, it adds Bluetooth, satellite radio, leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift lever, three-zone climate control, a power driver's seat, uprgaded cloth upholstery, security alarm, and an interior observation mirror. Crossroad models with the popular equipment package gain navigation, an upgraded stereo with a subwoofer, heated front seats and steering wheel, remote engine start, and an integrated garage door opener.
Fuel Economy
Dodge's fuel consumption estimates for the Journey are 12.7/9.2 L/100 km (city/highway).

Journey competitors comprise some of today's best-selling small crossovers, like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Ford Escape, as well as the Nissan Rogue, Hyundai Tucson, Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Terrain.
There are only two other seven seaters in the compact class: the Mitsubishi Outlander, and the Volkswagen Tiguan.
