Toyota Highlander vs. Dodge Journey Review

Handling
With their comparable turning circles, the Dodge Journey and the Highlander most definitely handle about the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Toyota Highlander's engine is substantially more sizeable than the Dodge Journey's. Remember that bigger engines may use more gasoline than smaller ones. Torque equals pickup, and the Toyota Highlander will have picked up and gone by the time the Dodge finally gets moving.

Utility
Neither the Dodge nor the Highlander has a marked advantage in terms of seating capacity. The Toyota Highlander is a better choice than the Dodge Journey in terms of transporting cargo, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of equipment or sizeable animals.

Convenience
You'll definitely take the Dodge Journey for a fill-up approximately as often as the Toyota Highlander.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Dodge offers a bit more head room than the Toyota Highlander, there honestly isn't much of a difference. The Toyota Highlander offers more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the Dodge Journey does.

Dimensions
The Highlander's tank is roughly the same size as the Dodge Journey's, though the Dodge Journey's is somewhat larger. The Toyota Highlander and the Dodge compete for the same parking spaces.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. The Journey is considerably cheaper to get to the dealership than the Toyota Highlander. The Toyota Highlander won't save you much money at the pump compared to the Dodge Journey. Regarding fuel economy, the Toyota Highlander is a tad better than the Dodge Journey, but not by much. In terms of MSRP, the Toyota costs significantly more than the Journey.

Overview
The Highlander and the Dodge Journey have the same basic after-sale protection.
