New spy shots indicate Fiat will bring back the Dodge Journey to China. The 2009 Dodge Journey, called JCUV in China, was sold as an import on the Chinese market and Fiat recently launched the Fiat Freemont in China, which is basically a rebadged 2011 Dodge Journey. Fiat so will sell two identical cars under different brands, likely because the Dodge-name is still stronger than Fiat in China.
