Dodge Journey Real Gas Mileage: Pros

2010 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The gas mileage is great for a 7 passenger SUV. On the highway at 60 mph you can see 25-28 mpg. City wise we see 18-19. see full Dodge Journey review

Dodge Journey Real Gas Mileage: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2016 4dr SUV 283-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 16 /24 in the AWD V6, 19 overall per the EPA. The city number is quite poor, though the highway number is competitive. We don't put all that many miles on our cars so it was something that we could more easily overlook, but if you've got a fairly long commute that isn't mostly on the highway, this might be a deal breaker. see full Dodge Journey review
2012 4dr SUV 283-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 The biggest disappointment for the car is the lower fuel economy. On the highway, it gets right around 30, but in town driving suddenly drops to under 20. That's a big difference, and since it is primarily used around town (less than 15% highway) we're paying a bit more in fuel costs. see full Dodge Journey review
2009 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 so far I have been getting about 17 mpg in the city. see full Dodge Journey review
2009 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 it does not get anywhere close to what Dodge claims, even when my husband drives it. see full Dodge Journey review
2009 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 no better than the Town and Country van, with far less room. see full Dodge Journey review
