Finding the perfect family minivan can certainly be a challenge. At Caledon Chrysler, we believe you might as well start at the top, that's why we are such big fans of Canada's best-selling minivan, the 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan. This dynamic minivan can seat seven passengers and it is remarkably versatile thanks to being available in nine different trims. Let's take a closer look at what Chrysler calls the "Get-It-Done Machine."
The Basics
While the 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan comes in nine trim levels, there are some features that are available on all of these minivans. When you look under the hood, you will find an award-winning 3.6-liter Pentastar Sequential MPI Flex Fuel V-6 engine that produces 283 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 260 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,400 rpm. Thanks to the standard FWD and 62TE six-speed automatic transmission with AutoStick, drivers will enjoy up to 13.7 L/100 km city and 9.4 L/100 km highway in fuel efficiency. Because you'll be transporting friends and family in your 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan it is equipped with advanced multistage driver and front-passenger, driver's knee blocker, supplemental front-seat-mounted side and all-row side curtain airbags as well as an Enhanced Accident Response System.
