Dodge Journey (2008-) Review

Category: Large MPV 3 out of 5

Summary of the Dodge Journey (2008-)

Price Range: £16,800 to £22,700

Assets

Practical, easy-to-use rear-seating system: plenty of kit; good value for money.

Drawbacks

Bouncy ride, unsupportive seats, noisy engine around town, poor handling.

Verdict

It's not wonderful to drive but if you have a large family, the roomy cabin makes this MPV fit for purpose.

Dodge Journey Review

Reliability and Quality2 out of 5

The Americans persist with more low-grade plastics in the cabin. The dashboard, in particular, has a hard look about it, but give it a prod and you'll find it quite squidgy. Whatever, it still looks cheap.

All the materials feel a bit low rent, particularly the instrument binnacle. If cabin quality is important to you, then you'll be put off by the Journey's interior.

It's not dreadful, it's just a little disappointing and lots of the details, such as the glovebox locks, just don't feel sturdy enough to withstand the rigours of daily use.
