2020 Dodge Grand Caravan Redesign

It looks like a decade old minivan is about to continue without bigger changes in the next few years before FCA definitely discontinue it. According to the latest reports, the 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan will be the last year model of the familiar MPV, which has been around for almost 35 years. For all these years, we have seen many versions of it. There are five generations in total and the current one is characterized by the longest production cycle. It is present on the market since 2008, which seems a little bit outdated, even for the MPV segment. Most likely, the company will replace it with a new, a little bit smaller minivan, which will come under Chrysler’s badge. Still, it won’t happen in the next two years, so 2020 Grand Caravan is about to come, without bigger changes compared to the current model.

You definitely can’t expect much from a decade-old minivan. That would be the best words to describe the Grand Caravan. Compared to the competition, this model lacks in many aspects. Of course, the main reason is an old platform. It is the same one that was used for the last-generation Chrysler Town and Country. Younger competitors are more comfortable and also feature better dynamics. On the other side, the styling seems fairly good, despite the age. You can notice Dodge’s familiar styling cues, which haven’t change too much in the newest models. There a lot of classic lines, which keeps this minivan safe from getting old. The 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan definitely won’t receive any change in style. Still, there is a chance to see more colours in the offer.
