Leaner and more contemporary than the minivan it replaces, the Grand Caravan gets rid of the flabby look and hides the sliding door track better than almost any other minivan. Compared to the 2008 Town and Country, the Caravan is supposed to be spicier, though we had trouble seeing much spice in this design, except perhaps for the red paint and Dodge grille. With a taller face, longer snout and more pronounced headlights, the Grand Caravan looks more square and flat than round and plump. That’s a good thing, though we felt that the rear gate of the Grand Caravan could use a little more character. Flat and squared, it provides for plenty of storage space, but is about as spicy as a bean and cheese burrito.
