2006 Dodge Caravan / Grand Caravan Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr Minivan 180-horsepower 3.3L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
The seats in the front are comfortable. My husband has an SUV and I enjoy riding in my car more then in his car. see full Dodge Caravan / Grand Caravan review |

I can get up to 2 adults and a child or 3 children, or 2 car seats and one child. The kids really like the rear seat and the middle captian chairs they love to recline and watch a movie. see full Dodge Caravan / Grand Caravan review |

2013 Dodge Grand Caravan Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2013 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I dislike the current emphasis on hard seats (and this applies to most other brands as well- Toyotas and Hondas are the worst). Enthusiast magazines can rave all they want about great support, etc, but the softer seats in friend's '92 Caravan are more comfortable than these in my 2013. I have an SXT model, which is sort of mid level in Grand Caravans, and it does have a power seat. However, that is an OPTION, and it should be standard above the SE model. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review |

Nice car, but front seats could be better. Close to a deal breaker. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review |
