Indeed, all the aforementioned features were present. The Dodge Journey held the position of the most budget-friendly mid-size crossover available in the Canadian market.
This vehicle was specifically engineered to cater to large families leading an active lifestyle, offering exceptional adaptability and commendable fuel economy.
The 5-door model provided a choice of powertrains, including a 2.4-liter engine generating 173 horsepower and a 3.6-liter Pentastar Chrysler unit producing 283 horsepower. The latter was available with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configurations.
While maintaining its boxy silhouette reminiscent of its predecessor, the exterior design had evolved beyond its outdated appearance.
Inside, the Journey boasted a well-appointed cabin featuring comfortable seating and an elevated driving position that afforded excellent visibility.
The cabin was finished with premium materials, predominantly soft-touch surfaces and quality leather throughout.
Standard amenities included heated seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with an ergonomic grip.
The vehicle’s controls were predominantly integrated into a touchscreen interface, with physical controls kept to a minimum.
Depending on the trim level (with a total of nine options available), the Journey could be equipped with features such as rear parking sensors, enhanced suspension, a 6-speaker premium audio system, chrome door handles, and remote engine start functionality.
Visually, the rear end showcased dual chrome exhaust tips. Interestingly, despite being a 2015 model, the vehicle did not feature a power-operated tailgate.
