Body Style, Trims and Options

The 2011 Dodge Grand includes new trims including Express, Mainstreet, R/T and Lux. All trims now feature a standard 3.6-liter V6 and six-speed automatic transmission and also come equipped with a tilt and telescoping steering column, remote keyless entry and a tire pressure monitor.

The Grand Caravan's dual sliding side doors feature power windows, and like the rear liftgate, are available with power opening and closing via the remote keyfob or buttons inside the van. A heated steering wheel, something typically offered only on higher-end luxury cars, is added to the 2011 options list.

One of the 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan's most useful features remains Chrysler's Stow 'n Go seating system. It's standard and enables the second-row buckets fold neatly into the floor, eliminating the need to remove them to create more cargo space. In the seats' upright position, the floor wells become large covered storage bins.

Powertrains and Perfomance

The 3.6-liter Pentastar engine in the 2011 Grand Caravan is rated at 283 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. By comparison, the top engine available in the 2010 Grand Caravan was a 4.0-liter V-6 with 251 horsepower and 259 pound-feet of torque.

The Pentastar also replaces two other V-6s used in these minivans, a 3.8-liter V-6 with 197 horsepower and 230 pound-feet of torque and a 3.3-liter with 175 horsepower and 205 pound-feet.

The 2011 Grand Caravan retains as its sole transmission a smooth-shifting six-speed automatic, but it gains a driver-selectable "economizer" mode that alters the transmission's shift points to help improve gas mileage.

Interior and Exterior Design

The 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan's interior gets major improvements. The instrument panel, dashboard, and steering wheel are new, and upgraded materials throughout the cabin contribute to a richer look and feel.
