Obvioulsy on any journey we undertake with the children, thoughts turn to safety. Here the Chyrsler Dodge Journey will not let you or your precious cargo down. Protecting everyone are advanced multi stage driver plus passenger airbags, front seat mounted side airbags, side curtain ones for all three rows and structural driver and passenger knee bolsters. Not that they should be deployed with ABS, ESP, All-speed Traction Control, Brake Assist and Electronic Roll Mitigation under the structural safety cage. Those who wish to tow even have the Trailer Sway Control fitted.

Impressed? Well I certainly was as a mother of two children. The new Dodge Journey proves that families can have a vehicle that is safe, practical, and fun to drive without taking out a second mortgage. Sadly customers will have an agonising wait to get their hands on this, as the Dodge Journey will not be arriving to the UK until August 2008. Hopefully by then Chrysler will have taken out the most annoying, dangerous and distracting flaw on this vehicle that of the extra rear mirror designed so the driver can keep any eye on the children. No we do not want too. We want to keep an eye on the road thank you very much.
