If you are searching for a family-friendly, full-size SUV that gets great gas mileage, then you need to set your sights on the new 2020 Dodge Journey. Available in only two trim levels, you can find the perfect model for you.
Â
Each one is powered by the same engine. Popping the hood, you will find a 2.4-litre DOHC 16V Inline-4 motor. Equipped with front-wheel-drive and a 4-speed automatic transmission, it delivers 172 hp and 165 lb-ft of torque. Since it is on the gentler side of the performance scale, it has a maximum towing limit of 453 kg (1,000 pounds).
Â
However, there is a benefit to those numbers. The fuel economy is stellar! It gets an average of 12.7 L/100 km (22 mpg) in the city and 9.2 L/100 km (31 mpg) on the highway. You won’t find another seven-seater that can compete with that.
Â
Finally, the Canada Value Package version features a normal suspension system, and the top-of-the-line Crossroad boasts a touring suspension. The latter makes for a more comfortable experience inside the cabin on longer trips.
