What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan

2012 Dodge Grand Caravan Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
