I count one, so far:

Just learned one of our loaners is a 2016 Journey with a 2.4L 4 banger... and a 4-speed “VLP” automatic. BLEH.

The LC hybrid isn’t out yet, right? Because that’s supposed to have one.

To be fair I highly doubt too many retail customers buy them that way.

The 2016 Toyota Corolla L came with a six-speed manual or four-speed automatic in the U.S.

Still does apparently for 2017 even with the redesign.

Oops, nevermind its a CVT now.

Base-model Corolla and Yaris, too.

Also, we have the 4-speed automatic Nissan Micra in Canada (which suck. Why you would get an automatic in such a small car is beyond me, but hey).

I can’t believe they build them that way other than for fleet. I have never ever had to deal with a warranty claim for a 4 speed though, so it might be the most reliable Dodge out there.

But yet they gave out a lifetime warranty on the CVT instead of keeping the 4-speed in everything. Silly Chrysler.
