The Dodge Journey has finally become a worthy rival for mainstream crossovers like the Equinox, RAV4 and CR-V.
The Kia Sorento is the Journey's closest competitor, with seating for seven, a choice of four- or six- cylinder engines, and an easy-to-use UVO voice control system for phone, audio, and navigation.
The Honda CR-V is well-packaged, refined and known for its reliability, and the Chevy Equinox offers extra interior space and up to 32 mpg on the highway.
The Toyota RAV4 only offers two rows of seats and a four-cylinder engine, while the Subaru Outback puts a focus on adventure-prone families with its added levels of ruggedness.
The Journey is also about the same size and shape as the Toyota Venza, but its superior packaging and third available third row create more usable space than in the Toyota.
