Dodge Grand Caravan
Fiat-Chrysler’s CEO keeps feeding the rumour mill with the fate of its minivans, but for now the best-selling van range in Canada returns with changes to colours and option groups. Only one drivetrain powers all Grand Caravans and Town & Countrys: the ubiquitous Pentastar 3.6L V6 (making 283 horsepower here), paired to a six-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. Stow n’ Go in the second row is still class-exclusive and remains highly practical. Nothing provides more room for the family at this budget level!
