The Dodge Journey, produced from 2009 to 2020, is a mid-size crossover SUV that aimed to offer a blend of practicality, affordability, and stylish design. The 2009 to 2010 model years mark the first generation of the Journey, featuring a distinct boxy shape with bold, angular lines. This design offered generous interior space, accommodating up to seven passengers with its three rows of seating. The Journey came equipped with a variety of engine options, including a 2.4L four-cylinder, a 3.5L V6, and even a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder for a sportier driving experience. Furthermore, the Journey offered a flexible cargo area, capable of expanding to accommodate various needs.
