The Journey comes in ten available colors. It also has a very distinguishable crosshair grille which you can decide to flank with either the standard headlights or black headlamp bezels. Dodge also added sculpted fender flares and if you like you can opt for dual bright exhaust tips.

There is a cargo area in the floor where you can fit shoes, tennis rackets etc., there’s fold-flat seats, a cooler in the floor to keep your drinks cold and there is also storage space in the front passenger seat. If you fold the seats down, you will get 67 cubic feet of cargo space in total. You can also opt for heated front-seats and a heated steering wheel and soft-touch materials.
