At least the transmission understands the drill when charging hard off the line, helping the Journey achieve 60 mph in a quick-for-the-segment 7.1 seconds. The 2013 thus hits the mark 1.2 seconds
The 2012 Dodge Journey comes in 5 configurations costing $18,995 to $31,795. See what power, features, and amenities you’ll get for the money. V6 Cylinder Engine (Gasoline Fuel) 283.0-hp, 3. Engine Type and Required Fuel. Gas I4. Displacement (liters/cubic inches) 2.4L/144. Fuel System. Electronic Fuel Injection. Maximum Horsepower @ RPM. 173 @ 6000. Maximum Torque @ RPM. Chrysler’s 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 offers much more grunt – 283 hp, 260 lb-ft of torque – and uses a six-speed automatic. This motor is available on most trim levels, and can be had with front- or all-wheel drive. The V6 isn’t significantly thirstier than the four-cylinder; it uses a mere 0.3 L/100 km more on the highway.The Journey comes in AWD and the 3.6 v6 engine with 6 speed. One needing more power might look for these options. But I am in the south, with no ice and flat terrain so I find the 2.4 quite adequate.
