A minivan’s primary purpose is to move families, pets and luggage safely and efficiently. The 2016 Town & Country minivan from Chrysler does all that and then some, providing an upscale interior loaded with premium features. With an emphasis on sophistication and style, the Town & Country earns its luxury credentials with standard leather seating and power-sliding side doors. On the options list you’ll find a Blu-ray disc player, a heated steering wheel and even a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot. Of course, you’ll pay a premium even for the entry LX trim. If you’re looking for something on par with the less expensive Kia Sedona or Toyota Sienna, but want the power and interior space of the Town & Country, try the Dodge Grand Caravan.
Commemorating Chrysler’s 90th anniversary is the Anniversary Edition that includes a power sunroof, heated front and 2nd-row seating, a heated steering wheel and special badging.
Two additional trims join the Town & Country lineup, which now spans six models. A new base version arrives in the form of the LX that starts just under $31,000 (including destination charge), while a new top-line model comes in the form of the Limited Platinum that is loaded with goodies.
To celebrate 30 years of making minivans (starting with the Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager), Chrysler Group is introducing anniversary editions with special badging and features like Alcantara suede accents.
For 2013, the Town & Country now offers a new Blu-Ray disc player with an HDMI port for game consoles, trailer-sway control and a pair of rear-seat USB ports for charging mobile devices.
Heavily revised for 2011 with new styling and the class-leading horsepower of Chrysler's new Pentastar V6, the Town & Country edges higher in refinement for 2012. Leather seating and rear-seat DVD entertainment are now standard on all trim levels.
The 2011 Chrysler Town & Country receives a major makeover, touting revised front and rear fascias, a new engine, new suspension and a greatly improved interior.
For 2010, front seat active head restraints are added to the standard equipment list of the Chrysler Town & Country.
Both the LX and Limited receive more standard equipment. LX trims now feature three-zone air conditioning, second-row power windows and third-row power vent windows as well as a combination temperature/compass/trip computer gauge. New options include a Blind Spot Monitoring system, dual 9-inch DVD view screens with swiveling third-row screen and the Rear Cross Path system, which warns drivers backing up of objects approaching them.
Beneath the surface of its boxier, more masculine styling, the fifth-generation Town & Country offers improved powertrains, more contemporary interior styling and class-exclusive options like satellite TV (offering three family channels) and clever second-row seating options. The shorter-wheelbase Town & Country model is no longer.
