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 |
