Chrysler Caravan

From TheBestLinks.com

(Redirected from Dodge Caravan)

The Chrysler Caravan or Dodge Caravan is a minivan marketed by the Chrysler Corporation. It was introduced in 1984 with its twin models, the Plymouth Voyager (nee Chrysler Voyager) and Chrysler Town and Country. For the 1987 model year a longer platform of the minivans was introduced called the Grands. It was based on the Chrysler S platform. It still ranks as North America's best selling minivan and is credited as the first modern minivan.

The Grand Caravan model features a longer wheelbase.

The minivans will be redesigned for Model Year 2007 or 2008 by Ralph Gilles, who also worked on the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Magnum.

The earlier Plymouth Voyager

Before the debut of the 1984 Plymouth Voyager minivan, there was a previous Plymouth full size passenger van called by the same name in the 1970s based on the Dodge Tradesman van - a bit of badge engineeering to help Plymouth dealers improve their sales. It could hold as much as 12 passengers (15 in the stretched version). This vehicle was - at the time - Plymouth's first truck bodied vehicle in many decades.
