Jones Junction dealership looking ahead to 2019 offerings

Before major car manufacturers release new models of their cars and trucks, they usually issue a preview of the model changes detailing the latest style and technology improvements.

Maryland dealership Jones Junction recently posted a blog featuring the new models that stood out based on the previews.

Those models include the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe, the 2019 Subaru Legacy, the 2019 Toyota 4Runner, the 2019 Dodge Durango and the upcoming Jeep Wrangler Pickup.

The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe is expected to start at  $30,000 MSRP, with changes that include updated body styling, new options with trim levels and new cabin technology. The Santa Fe rates highly in its class, the blog said.

The 2019 Subaru Legacy brings a more powerful engine counterbalanced with a lighter overall body weight; this means that fuel economy should improve, the blog said. Subaru is keeping its overall body styling similar, focusing more on what’s inside the vehicle and under its hood.

The 2019 Toyota 4Runner will have updated styling that includes redesigned LED head and taillights and a new grille. It will also bring a more efficient V-6 engine in addition to an overall lighter body weight.

The 2019 Dodge Durango, with a base price expected to be $28,000-29,000 will bring new LED technology for rear lights and minimal updates to overall body styling.

Jeep’s expected Wrangler Pickup will bring new options for hauling and towing, combining the brand’s reliability and classic rugged look with its ability to handle off-road driving, the blog said.
