2007 Dodge Caravan Review
America's best-selling minivan is built from the same design as Chrysler's Town & Country. Caravan is unchanged for 2007 and comes as a regular-length model or as the extended-length Grand Caravan. Both offer SE and SXT trim and have seven-passenger seating. The regular-length SE is available with a 150-hp 4-cyl engine or a 170-hp 3.3-liter V6. Regular-length SXT and Grand SE come with the 170-hp V6. Grand SXT has a 200-hp 3.8-liter V6. A 4-speed automatic is the only transmission. Traction control is standard on Grand SXT, unavailable otherwise. No antiskid system is offered. ABS is standard on Grands, optional on regular-length SXTs. A driver knee airbag is standard on all Caravans. Curtain side airbags that cover all three seating rows are optional. Standard on the Grand SXT is Dodge's Stow 'n Go 2nd- and 3rd-row seats that fold into floorwells. With the seats raised, the wells provide storage space. Other available features include power sliding side doors, power liftgate, power-adjustable pedals, DVD entertainment, navigation system, integrated child seats, and wireless cell phone link.
Competition
Consumer Guide® Automotive places each vehicle into one of 18 classes based on size, price, and market position. Long the choice as a family hauler, Minivans are easily the smartest use of space for passengers and cargo. These vehicles offer a fantastic blend of comfort, convenience, and safety features for the modern family.

Our Best Buy is the Honda Odyssey. Our Recommended picks are the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Hyundai Entourage, Kia Sedona, and Toyota Sienna.

New or significantly redesigned models include the Hyundai Entourage and Nissan Quest.
News
Chrysler Group minivans go bold and boxy with an expected 2008 makeover. Sources say Caravans draw on the burly look of Dodge's Charger/Magnum, while Chrysler will give its Town & Countrys some 300 sedan visuals. All models will offer roll-down rear-door windows for the first time, plus restyled Stow 'n Go interiors. This updating may enlarge some dimensions, but probably not too much, as the basic platform is reportedly unchanged. That, in turn, suggests engines could be carryover too, though perhaps mated to a new 5- or 6-speed automatic transmission. Short- and long-body models will continue.
