Carrying a V6 engine, the 2019 Dodge Journey also has an intuitive infotainment system. This has various trim levels too
Design & Style
The 2020 Volvo XC90 is best described with its refreshed exterior. Inside it, there is the allowable six-seat layout, which can be achieved if you trade the second-row seat is traded for captain's chairs. The cabin has a generous amount of headroom and legroom, thus giving all passengers more room to move around especially during long trips. It has the nicest cabin. Thanks to its breathtaking materials.
The 2019 Dodge Journey, like the XC90, also seats seven people. However, this ride does not really impress. The truth is only its first-row seat offers comfort. The other two rows are tight in terms of headroom and legroom. Crafted from leather upholstery, the cabin is a miss as well.
Technology & Safety
The 2020 XC90 has the Sensus infotainment system. This is paired with a nine-inch touch screen that supports a lot of functions including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It is also blessed with 10-speaker audio, two USB ports, a navigation system, and Bluetooth.
