2019 Dodge Journey at Santee Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram in Manning, SC
Affordable isn't an adjective you often heard to describe three-row crossovers. This emerging subsection of the crossover segment adds a hefty price for practicality, albeit with some nice finishing touches. The 2019 Dodge Journey isn't one of those exorbitantly priced models. Offering comfort, convenience, great interior features, and sporty styling without the hefty price tag, the 2019 Dodge Journey is in a class all its own. Here's a look at the features that will make you want to pull one into your driveway this year.

Performance

Under the hood, the 2019 Dodge Journey comes with one of two engine options. The stock engine is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder that dishes out 173 horsepower and up to 166 pound-feet of torque. That's plenty of power to satisfy most drivers, but the true upside is its 25 mpg. With a single tank of gas, you'll go over 500 miles before you have to hit the gas station. If you crave more power, upgrade to the award-winning 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6. Doling out 283 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, this brute can propel you from zero to 60 mph in just 7.8 seconds and a quarter-mile in 16.1 seconds to go along with a top speed of 118 mph.

Exterior

The stylish exterior of the 2019 Dodge Journey expertly blends form and function. Aggressive lines and a sporty front end highlight the styling cues of the Journey, but it doesn't end there. A roof rack provides added versatility for a luggage rack or Christmas tree, while the Ring of Fire taillights add a bit of allure to the back end. Choose from one of 10 colors to make your Journey stand out from the crowd, including Contusion Blue, Vice White, Billet, Pitch Black, Granite, Verde Olive, Redline 2, Blood Orange, Ceramic Grey, and White Noise.

Interior

The roomy interior of the 2019 Dodge Journey provides plenty of versatility whether you're carrying loads of cargo or chauffeuring friends and family. Standard third-row seating provides room for seven, but if you need more space, fold the second- and third-row seats down to unveil a whopping 67.6 cubic feet of storage volume. Other standard and available features include heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, soft-touch materials, and your choice of either cloth seats or five different types of leather.

Technology

If you're a tech guru, the 2019 Dodge Journey will indulge your interests. At the core of its tech offerings is an 8.4-inch color touch-screen display that allows you to navigate the standard Uconnect infotainment system. This system provides access to a navigation system, the radio, and numerous other features through SiriusXM Travel Link. Audiophiles will also love the available Infinity audio system, which provides concert-quality sound through six speakers, a subwoofer, and a 368-watt amplifier. At the touch of the play button, you'll feel like you're immersed in a live show. From its cavernous interior and third-row seating to the superb engine options that blend efficiency and power, the 2019 Dodge Journey is the crossover that leaves nothing left to be desired.
