2017 Dodge Journey Overview

Is the 2017 dodge journey a good used suv.

Be good to yourself – don’t get the 2017 Dodge Journey. It has a comfortable ride, an easy-to-use infotainment system, and a lower average price than most other midsize SUVs .

It also has below-average cargo space for the class.

You'll be hard pressed to find a comparable 2018 midsize SUV that costs nearly the same as the 2017 Dodge Journey. But don’t stop believing that you can do better than the Journey. If you're willing to pay a bit more, consider the 2018 Kia Sorento . Like the Journey, the Sorento features a user-friendly infotainment system and offers a comfortable ride. Beyond that, the Kia and the Journey are worlds apart. The Sorento has a higher fuel economy rating, more passenger room, and a little more overall cargo space. The Kia's cabin is also more upscale than the Journey's.

Which Used Dodge Journey Model Is Right for Me?

The 2017 Dodge Journey comes in five trims: SE, SXT, Crossroad, Crossroad Plus, and the top-of-the-line GT. Since the base trim's features are scarce, we recommend the Crossroad Plus, which has leather bucket seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a six-way power-adjustable driver's seat, an 8.4-inch touch screen, voice command, Bluetooth, and satellite radio.

2017 Dodge Journey Versus the Competition

Which is better: 2017 dodge journey or 2017 kia sorento.

The 2017 Kia Sorento is one of the highest-ranked midsize crossovers in the class. Unlike the Journey, it has top-notch predicted reliability, high safety scores, and an upscale cabin. Additionally, it has better gas mileage estimates and more overall passenger and cargo space than the Journey. Besides the Journey's lower average list price, there's really no reason to go on this Journey.

Which Is Better: 2017 Dodge Journey or 2017 Dodge Durango?

If you still want to stay in the Dodge family, the 2017 Dodge Durango also sits in the midsize SUV class. Though both vehicles have low predicted reliability, the Durango is the better SUV of the two. Inside, the Durango has a larger cargo bay and more passenger space. Performance-wise, the Durango has a powerful base engine and nimble handling – things you can't say about the Journey.

2017 Journey Performance

How does the 2017 dodge journey drive.

The Journey has a comfortable ride, but it exhibits excessive body roll around corners. A sluggish 173-horsepower four-cylinder engine powers the 2017 Dodge Journey. However, some models come with a stronger 283-horsepower V6. The standard four-speed automatic transmission is outdated and unrefined. The V6 comes with a six-speed automatic that is slow to downshift. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available.

Does the 2017 Dodge Journey Get Good Gas Mileage?

The 2017 Dodge Journey delivers 19 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. With the V6 engine, efficiency drops to 17/25 mpg city/highway. The 2017 Kia Sorento delivers 21/28 mpg city/highway, and the 2017 Dodge Durango gets 19/26 mpg city/highway.

2017 Journey Interior

How many people does the 2017 journey seat.

The base 2-row 2017 Dodge Journey seats five. Some higher trims add a third row that increases capacity to seven. The first two rows are adult friendly, but only the young can fit in the optional third row. Cloth upholstery is standard, but some models come with leather upholstery and heated front seats.

How Many Car Seats Fit in the 2017 Dodge Journey?

There are two full sets of LATCH child-seat connectors on the 2017 Journey's second-row outboard seats. There’s also an upper tether and a right lower anchor on the middle seat. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the Journey the second-lowest rating of Marginal for its ease of use. Some upper tethers are hard to find and can be confused with other hardware. Also, some lower anchors are too deep in the seats and difficult to maneuver around.

2017 Dodge Journey Features

Standard features include a USB port, a 4.3-inch touch screen, and a six-speaker audio system. Some models come with voice command, Bluetooth, an 8.4-inch touch screen, a premium audio system, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
