The 2019 Dodge Journey has dropped entirely off our charts thanks to outdated style, safety, and technology.
Pros Low price Seven-seat capability Good optional infotainment Versatile interior
Cons Bad safety scores Limited features Dated feel Underwhelming in almost every way
Dodge does little to make the Journey more competitive for 2019. However, the company has dropped the SXT trim and pared down the lineup to three models: SE, Crossroad, and GT. The change means more standard features and options on the entry-level Journey SE, which can now be had with the V-6 powertrain. Likewise, its front and rear ends have sportier styling as well as new fog lamps and LED taillights. All models are now available with Destroyer Gray exterior paint, among the other color choices.
Pros Competitive pricing, easy-to-use infotainment, lots of storage space.
Cons Cut-rate interior, poor handling, lacks driver-assist tech.
The 2019 Dodge Journey ranked #21 in Midsize SUVs. Currently the Dodge Journey has a score of 6.9 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 52 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.
Pros Intuitive infotainment system Affordable price
Cons Leisurely acceleration with base engine Ponderous handling Few available safety features
DS7 Crossback will be the brand’s largest SUV This flagship model will boast bold styling and high-tech kit New DS Pilot autonomous driving features will be offered Advanced suspension promises excellent refinement. The DS7 Crossback’s bold, angular styling should come as no great surprise considering DS’ extensive back catalogue of wild concept cars. From the intricate headlights with swivelling LED modules to its vast chrome-framed grille, this new car makes every attempt to stand out from the usual sea of restrained, business-like SUVs.
DS promises a luxurious interior and generous standard kit for the 7 Crossback. On the exterior, it has a large, stylish front grille, wide air intakes and LED lights, all of which help to give the car an aggressive, sporty look, while it's full of tech inside, with a 12.0in infotainment touchscreen and a customisable digital instrument display. It should be practical, too, with seats for five with the promise of good head and leg room and a large boot. DS is a very new name to the car industry, having been launched as Citroën's premium sister brand two years ago. Until now, though, it has only sold cars that were previously badged as Citroëns, so this mid-sized SUV will be the first true DS car.
