4dr SUV 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
There are a couple of unique features that really sold the Journey to my wife and I that I simple didn't see on any other vehicle we considered:
2nd row in floor storage bins - each bin is just big enough to fit a 12 pack of soda in. When closed, you'd never know these bins are there. Killer app is that the bins have a plastic insert you can remove so that if you store something dirty or wet in these bins, you don't have to worry about making a mess as you can easy clean them out afterwards.
2nd row built-in booster seats - in both outboard seats, the seat cushion can be made to fold up into a booster. It not only eliminates the burden of having to carry one around all of the time, it also permits you to take a friend along without needing to worry about another carseat for them. When not acting as a booster, you'd have no idea the seats were equipped with this feature. Only other vehicle I'm aware of that has these is the Volvo XC70 which is considerably more expensive nor offers a 3rd row.
Fold flat front passenger seat - I suspect we've all made the occasional run to IKEA or Home Depot and needed to take home something awkwardly long. As the Journey's front passenger seat can fold flat in-line with a folded 2nd and 3rd row, you can easily take advantage of the full length of the interior.
Front seat passenger storage - The other trick the front passenger seat performs is that you can open it up to reveal a storage compartment within the seat itself. As with the other hidden storage areas, it doesn't compromise comfort or aesthetics.
3rd row seat - Obviously not unique among SUVs, though it is fairly unique among SUVs of this size. While not a place I'd choose to spend a lot of time, it works great to take a larger group to dinner and save the trouble of needing to take two separate vehicles just because you have 5/6/7 people going. 3rd rows as tested during an auto show in the Nissan Rogue or Mitsubishi Outlander as noticably smaller and inferior. Kia Sorento's is noticably more accomodating, however.
4dr SUV 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
As this vehicle dates to 2008, with a refresh in 2011, there are a couple of features simple not available from the Journey that many its competitors do offer, at least on higher end trims:
