2021 Chrysler Grand Caravan

[manicrodder]

Yes, steel wheels and hubcaps.

Police interceptor!

The car on the roof to the right.
Looks like a 1940's Dodge.

Is that bright chrome around the windows, or is that white shipping tape? I hope it’s not chrome, looks way tacky for this vehicle.

It looks like there is protective tape on it, but the trim going around the windows probably is chrome or a bright metal finish. The vertical pillar sections should be black from the pictures on Chrysler's website. I think the white tape probably makes the perimeter trim look thicker than it is. It does look like they got inspiration from the Putco catalog at first glance due to the tape.

I think you’re right. I’m okay with the bright trim around the windows. But yea it looks like the vertical strips are just protective covering thankfully.

Rented a 2020 Pacifica while in Florida for 2 weeks. It was pretty nice, roomy, and had decent power. It had leather, heated/ventilated seats and the pano roof. Is this model a Canadian model only?

 

[earlyre]

In the US, it is the Chrysler Voyager. In Canada, it is the Chrysler Grand Caravan.

Once they finally ended production on the 5th gen caravans, they renamed the lower trim level ( L, LX) Pacifica to Voyager ( and apparently Grand Caravan in Canada)

The exterior is OK, but that interior color is just gross. Pick either dark or light, not both. I had when they do that.
I prefer all dark, but could live with all light, but not a combo of both.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of interiors with a lot of high contrast colors all over the place. They do offer a lighter seat and carpet color that is a little better, but still has a dark dash pad and door panel inserts.

I think a lot of car markers got criticism in reviews in the 90s and early 00s for having most of the interior be one color, so now the knee jerk response is to throw in a lot of high contrast colors to make things interesting and modern or whatever on some vehicles. If you don't like the contrast, then your other choice is all black everything.

I like some multi-tone interiors, but this looks like the seats literally got put in the wrong car.... they simply don’t fit ... the stitching on straight seat lines amidst the bubble plastics don’t flow either when looking rearward.

Keep in mind 41K CAD is $32193 USD.

But it doesn't necessarily work that way. It is not the straight USD / CDN dollar exchange that is at play. Canadians are- and are considered to be poorer than our American neighbours by the Mfrs, so oftentimes cars are cheaper in Canada than the conversion from USD to CDN$. I guess it varies, but oftentimes this is the case. You know... the market pricing is dependent, in part, on what the Mkt will / can pay.

Guys and gals, calm down. This is literally a base model, stripped down minivan. No one cares about the seat color matching the interior.

Odd, but i like it.....

A BITOG special!

Wow, Chrysler really just doesn’t apparently even want to compete, that interior looks so cheap that they just said...well, oh well, who cares? $31,000 American for that thing?

I owned a Chrysler Voyager many years ago...served its purpose until winter came, then the family and I realized real quick they are awful in the snow. Like out of control, you have no chance, awful. The new ones I’m sure must be better, but it looks like Chrysler considers the vehicle an after thought.

Has anyone ever seen what it looks like in Kia mini van right now? Christ, it looks like a Mercedes compared to this thing. Or Honda? Or Toyota?

It’s the cheap model that everyone always says they want but never buys, they’re $27,000 here in the States. It has the same interior as a base spec Chrysler Voyager... it’s not the prettiest interior ever, but it’s comfortable and it’s a minivan. Throw your kids and/or crap in it and go.

My God, I'm amazed at how people survived up here in the GWN with them then!

Seriously, did you miss your critical thought coffee this morning? It's clearly the base model without options. If you want more creature comforts you step-up to the Pacifica, which can be extremely well-optioned, it's even stupidly easy to find the details by just visiting the manufacturer's website, which even has pictures!

Triggered? Try to relax, it’s ok that you like the mini van. Deep breaths. Try breathing through your nose.

I hate vans actually, I just know this particular van can be very well-optioned. You would too had you taken the 30 seconds it takes to browse the manufacturer's website.

I drove Chev and Dodge minivans through the years.
Put decent snow tires on them and they're very good in the snow.
Been through some situations that were just nasty, and the vans did fine.

I dislike leather at any price. I much prefer the feel of cloth.

Yes! especially for what they call "leather" these days.

 

[nobb]

Crazy how even base vehicles are so expensive these days. Back in 2015 when you could get the older Grand Caravan I believe they had a Canada Value Package that was only $20k.
