The 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan is redesigned with fresh styling, a new top-line engine, and new seating features. Grand Caravan is built from the same design as Chrysler's Town & Country. The '08 model is 2 inches longer in wheelbase and overall length than the 2007 versions. It is offered in a single-length Grand Caravan model in SE and SXT trim levels. The shorter wheelbase Caravan model is discontinued, as is the 4-cylinder engine. All Caravans now have a V6. The 3.3-liter and 3.8-liter engines carry over from 2007. New for 2008 is a 253-hp 4.0-liter. The 3.3 V6 teams with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The 3.8 and 4.0 engines use a 6-speed automatic. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, and curtain side airbags. All Caravans seat up to seven. Standard is a 60/40 split 3rd-row bench seat that folds into the floor. A power folding 3rd-row seat is available. The 2nd-row is available as a removable bench with integrated child seats or with bucket seats. The buckets can fold as part of Dodge's Stow 'n Go system. With the seats raised, the floorwells provide storage space. Newly available is Dodge's Swivel 'n Go that allows the 2nd-row buckets to turn 180 degrees and face backward. This seating arrangement includes a removable table that mounts between the 2nd and 3rd rows. The swiveling seats can be removed, but not folded into the cargo floor. A satellite TV system is optional. It broadcasts kid-friendly programming on the DVD entertainment screens. Chrysler's MyGIG Multimedia system, which includes a 20-gigabyte hard drive for storing pictures and digital music files, is also available.
