New Vans from Chrysler

All-new Caravan and Town&Country:




coming from the creator of the modern minivan, these new vans look dated and old. why chrysler why?

The bulk of minivan buyers aren't exactly known to be the daring types. hehehe.

Maybe Chrysler is playing safe on this one.

They must have heard of Nissan's minivan flop called "Quest".

That was one radical minivan. hehehe. I liked the earlier, simpler Quests (the ones also badged as Mercury Villagers).

Ouch, the Quest is selling badly? Too bad... nice ambience, great engine... I guess Minivan buyers really couldn't care less...

Nissan Quest-----31,905
Honda Odyssey---177,919
Toyota Sienna----168,269
Kia Sedona-------- 57,018
(2006 sales total)

If Kia outsells your van, shouldn't you be worried?That's probably why Nissan facelifted the Quest including its unpopular elliptical dash.It should start selling better.

300C syndrome? maybe they thought that the 300C design could work on their vans!

Meh. The last minivan we had was a 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan SE. It was quite nice inside. But, the weak transmission was a pain. We traded it in back in 2005.

Now,we're looking for another minivan. But, my wife wants either a Sienna or Odyssey this time.

I don't if its just me, but it looks uncannily similar to the current Kia Carnival.
