Featured Features of 2009 Dodge Journey: Technologies for Flexibility

Just recently, I have learned about an upcoming Dodge model for 2009 that has been engineered to provide everyone’s preference for a car. It is the 2009 Dodge Journey with SUV capabilities. From jalopnik.com, several features amazed me. These are the following I found:
  • Innovative and Clever Technologies for Flexibility
  • MyGIG™ cutting-edge multimedia audio and entertainment system
  • Available ParkView™ Rear Backup Camera displays the view behind the vehicle in the navigation display when backing up or parking
  • Available Full-color, GPS Map Navigation System with 7-inch (17.8 cm) display provides convenient directions and traffic alerts
  • Chill Zone™ cooled beverage storage bin located in the glove box helps keep two cooled 12-oz. (330 ml) cans cool through the air conditioning system or fresh air inlet
  • YES Essentials Premium Cloth Seats are stain resistant, odor resistant and anti static for easy cleaning and a long-lasting appearance
  • Available Aimable LED Map/Reading Lamps provide focused light without distracting the driver
  • Available Removable, Rechargeable LED Flashlight is stored in the rear cargo area for convenient light when needed
  • Illuminated Cup Holders glow blue green for easy nighttime access
  • Available Rear-seat Entertainment System includes an 8-inch (20.3 cm) color monitor that works with the radio DVD player. The display conveniently folds down from the headliner to entertain rear seat passengers
  • Available 115-volt, 150-watt Power Inverter on the rear of the console powers small household appliances (available in North America)
  • Available SIRIUS™ Digital Satellite Radio offers a variety of subscription-based radio programs and music for enhanced listening enjoyment (available in North America)
  • Available UConnect™ provides convenient, hands-free communication with BlueTooth™ cellular phones
  • Four 12-volt Power Points for powering small electronics. Two are in the front, one is in the second row and one is in the cargo area
  • Available Remote Start starts a secured vehicle with the key fob for added convenience (available in North America)
Those are just not all. More have been discussed in the site. You could simply check it out for a more elaborated version. And, expect it to be shown on display at the Frankfurt Auto Show.
