What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan

2013 Dodge Grand Caravan Seat Room and Comfort: Cons

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

It's OK for the driver, but there's not much room for the feet of the passenger. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review

Taller drivers will fit, but you have to get the seat JUST right. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review
2005 2dr Convertible turbocharged 178hp 1.8L I4
