Taking home a participation trophy is the Dodge Journey. Chrysler’s crossover earns last-place dishonors because it delivers just 23.4 inches of third-row legroom, worst in this test by a wide margin.
The Journey’s feeble performance is a bit of a mystery because its wheelbase spans a fairly generous 113.8 inches. But it also comes in dead last when comparing overall cargo volume. There’s just 67.6 cubic feet of storage space available when the second- and third-row seats are folded. That’s about 5 cubic feet fewer than the next-smallest Kia Sorento, which rides on a wheelbase that’s a whopping 7.5 inches shorter! Figure that one out.
