5 reasons to buy the 2015 Dodge Journey

1. Easy ride 

The 2015 Dodge Journey is easy to maneuver, a great feature if you're a city driver who needs to squeeze around cars or for those highway rides when you want to get underway smoothly. If you’re looking for a stylish, fun car to drive while schlepping kids, their friends, and their stuff around, check out all the 2015 Dodge Journey has to offer. It's good on open highways and even over rough roads. 

2. Good for snow 

This vehicle has features that allow it to be a good vehicle in the snow. If you have an AWD trim, and the V6 engine, carving your way out of snow without shoveling should be pretty easy. Opt for a trim that features heated seats and a heated steering wheel for an even more enjoyable driving experience during inclement weather.  

3. Great for large families 

If you’re looking for a crossover SUV with a third-row option, some of the 2015 Dodge Journey trims will suit your needs. The 2015 Dodge Journey is available in five-passenger and six-passenger seating configurations. Integrated child booster seat options make for a very family-friendly vehicle. 

4. Big touchscreen 

The 2015 Dodge Journey features a large 8.4-inch smart display with an easy-to-use interface on higher-level trims — there's a 4.3-inch touchscreen on lower-level trims. For those of us who don’t want to squint at our dashboard screen, you’ll appreciate large icons, straightforward menus, and large typeface. Even the backseat passengers will be able to see what’s happening on screen. Tech add-on options include weather enhancements, Uconnect Voice Command with Bluetooth® connectivity, and Uconnect 4.3S Entertainment options that have an optional DVD entertainment system. This can help keep the backseat passengers quiet and entertained on road trips. 

5. Premium feel interior 

The 2015 Dodge Journey features matte chrome trim, options of black leather seats, and sporty, sophisticated-looking textures throughout the cabin. The second-row seat has flexible seating options for car seats and you can search for a 2015 Dodge Journey with a booster package that makes it easy for hauling kids around town. Plenty of storage is available throughout, including 10.7 cu ft of space behind the third row. Put all of the rear seats down and enjoy 67.6 cu ft of cargo space.
