2018 Dodge Journey vs. 2018 Chevy Equinox

Should I Pick the 2018 Dodge Journey or the 2018 Chevy Equinox?

The 2018 Dodge Journey is a better buy than the 2018 Chevy Equinox for the following reasons:

• Lower starting MSRP by $1,900
• An upgraded engine that reaches 283 hp
• More maximum cargo volume
• Available 7-passenger seating

The Journey and the Equinox Go Head-to-Head

Many Regina drivers will want to add V6 performance to their next crossover, and the 2018 Dodge Journey delivers. Let’s see how the highest-powered Equinox model compares:

• 2018 Dodge Journey
  • Engine: 3.6L Pentastar VVT V6
  • Horsepower: 283 hp
  • Torque: 260 lb-ft
• 2018 Chevy Equinox
  • Engine: 1.5L 4-Cylinder
  • Horsepower: 170 hp
  • Torque: 203 lb-ft

As you can see, the upgraded engine of the Journey outpaces the Equinox. In addition, if you’d like to equip your next crossover with seating for 7, the Journey has you covered with an available third row of seating. That’s a feature that’s solely lacking in the Equinox. On top of that, the maximum cargo area of the Journey gives you more versatility than the Equinox:

• 2018 Journey – Cargo Area (All Seats Folded Down) – 1914 liters
• 2018 Equinox – Cargo Area (All Seats Folded Down) – 1,798.12 liters

If you’re planning on hauling cargo, camping supplies, or anything else, the Journey is a better choice. With all of these advantages, you might assume that the Journey costs more than the Equinox, but in fact, the opposite is true:

• The 2018 Chevy Equinox starts at $25,545 MSRP.
• The 2018 Dodge Journey starts at $23,645 MSRP.

For a stronger overall value, the Journey is worth a closer look, and that’s where Knight Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram comes in.
