It comes equipped with a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine that produces 173 hp. That means it can get up to 7.5L/100 km on the highway with its 4-speed automatic transmission. Drivers will appreciate having the choice of front-wheel or all-wheel drive, too.

The 2012 Journey will also keep families safe. It received the top score of good from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in frontal-offset, side-impact, and roof-strength trials. In addition, motorists will appreciate safety features like active front head restraints to deploy in the case of a rear impact, reducing the possibility of severe injury. The newest multistage airbags are poised to activate from vital front and side positions to secure passengers in an emergency.

While driving, the electronic stability control system is constantly monitoring driving conditions. With components like electronic roll mitigation, trailer sway damping, and all-speed traction control, motorists don't have to worry about distractions when out adventuring with the family in this vehicle.

Inside the cabin, creature comforts abound, making it an inviting and relaxing environment. The Uconnect 4.3 Media Centre is an infotainment setup that owners appreciate; controls for the audio system and cruise control put much-needed options at one's fingertips. A remote USB port and an auxiliary input jack ensures that all travelers can listen to enjoyable music. The Keyless Enter-N-Go system with proximity sensor is an essential perk, especially when one's hands are full.
