Dodge Journey Digitally Returns From the Dead, 2025 Model Joins the Hornet and Durango

Speaking of the latter, it is still the talk of the town almost two months after the grand unveiling. That's because it is the first and only electric muscle car, and enthusiasts of all ages are still curious whether it is a real muscly model or just another bland model that has fallen into the EV sea, albeit with a few internal combustion alternatives and a four-door sedan joining the coupe.

The most natural approach for Dodge would be to continue to expand its lineup with additional electric vehicles, most of which would be crossovers. Don't fret about the possible monikers these hypothetical upcoming rides would use, as the automaker has numerous famous nameplates on its shelves.

One of them could be the Journey. But why did we mention it out of all other models from Dodge's past? Well, the reason is that it has just returned from the dead with a digital twist. Nihar Mazumdar recently took to Behance to release a couple of renderings of a hypothetical successor to the discontinued crossover.

The CGI model features a red finish, front and rear fascias inspired by other dodges, a few black elements, and a cockpit that clearly came from a modern Peugeot. The real thing had its pictures taken in front of a Renault dealership, so it would be natural to assume that it was based on one of the diamond brand's existing models.

Nevertheless, due to the angles, it is very tricky to spot the exact ride. As a result, we will proceed to tell you that a brand-new Journey does not appear to be on Dodge's radar for the immediate future. And even if it was, it would look nothing like the one in these renderings. This applies to the supposed Renault exterior and the typical Peugeot cockpit.

Dodge pulled the plug on the Journey in 2020 after 12 years of production. It shared its nuts and bolts with Avenger, Chrysler 200, and Sebring and was available with an all-wheel drive system. Depending on where it was sold, the powertrain family comprised a couple of diesel units, a straight-four gasoline burner, and several V6s with manual and automatic transmissions.

There would be plenty of room for a modern-day Journey in Dodge's vehicle lineup, as such a model would slot between the Tonale and the Durango. But would you consider buying one if it looked similar to the renderings shared by the quoted pixel manipulator? Let us know your thoughts about it in the comments area below.
