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
2009 4dr SUV 173-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Averaged about 24-26 MPG in the 10 days that we rented it. see full Dodge Journey review

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

I can go below 7L/100km when driving long routes (or about 9L/100km driving in residential areas). Not bad for a car this size and power. see full Dodge Caliber review

Not as good as I would expect. The Avenger which I own now get better fuel economy on the highway and is a roomier car. see full Dodge Caliber review

This STINKS... I believe the reported fuel economy on my car was something like 25/30. I have never gotten above 23mpg in this car, and usually it is much lower. Had I known ahead of time, I probably would not have purchased this vehicle. see full Dodge Caliber review
