jaymista Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Does anyone know whether there is going to be a newly designed Journey for 2016? I cannot find any info on this. Rocket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milous Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 The redesign is not until 2017 model year. 2016s will have minimal changes, launch is at the end of July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I'm hoping that it will not be just another redo of the Cherokee, but something entirely different. This will give me choices when I'm ready for something new. I get bored very easily. Rocket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ZINGA Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Current 5-year plan calls for Journey-replacement D-segment CUV launching mid-2016, SRT trim launching late 2016, 2017 MY. Current rumors on the the vehicles underpinnings are CUSW (Dart, Cherokee, 200), and D-RWD. D-RWD is being co-developed by Alfa and Dodge for RWD mid-size sedans. It is primarily to improve Alfas portfolio, with Dodge assisting to increase ROI on the new platform. I'm leaning towards and hoping for D-RWD, as it would certainly be interesting and would fall in line with FCAs plans to make Dodge the sports-car brand. In support of that they've already dumped the FWD Avenger, are planning on dump Grand Caravan in the US, and have major changes planned for Dart and Journey (D-segment CUV, still no confirmation that it will be called Journey). If they follow through using D-RWD, use styling from the Dart concept car shown last year at SEMA and the SRT Charger, I'll be listening very intently and my wallet will be sweating bullets.

bramfrank Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I read that they've delayed the new model to 2017 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jharrington Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 That sounds perfect for me.. That will be just about time for trade in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I just read where Chrysler will get a small and midsize SUV. The minivan will be their full sized vehicle. I do not know where this leaves Dodge as Sir Sergio does not want the Brands competing with each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
