The Grand Caravan SE comes standard with a flex-fuel (gasoline or an E85 blend), 175-horsepower 3.3-liter V6. It's distinguished by a decent amount of standard comfort features like keyless entry (Honey, are the keys in the diaper bag?), fold-away outside mirrors (if we park the bicycles over there, can we still get the van in the garage, you think?) and a flip-down kiddie mirror (Nicholas, stop that right now!). The Grand Caravan SXT adds a 197-hp 3.8-liter V6,
power driver seat and pedals, power outside mirrors and rear
air-conditioning. (Dodge expects most people will opt for this version of
the Caravan.) The SXT also has more available options than the SE. For
example, there's a new 251-hp, all-aluminum 4.0-liter V6. The 3.8- and
4.0-liter V6s are hooked up to a new six-speed automatic transmission,
while the 3.3-liter V6 gets a four-speed. |

The third-row seat splits 60/40 and folds flat into the floor. Almost every minivan has this, but the Grand Caravan offers an optional power-folding seat with one-touch operation. No other minivan has this feature. The Grand Caravan's standard Stow
'n Go seats carry over from the previous minivan, although Dodge has added
a few twists that make overall function even more family-friendly.
Meanwhile, the new, optional Swivel 'n Go system lets you turn the
second-row seats 180 degrees so they face the rear of the car. In this
configuration, you can set up a small table that stows out of sight when
not in use and create your own self-contained living area. |
