Town and Country ideal for a family road trip in style
Chrysler isn't huge on the breed of crossovers which are taking over the world one driveway at a time- but they've just updated their famous minivan lineup. It's a different ball game for the new generation of sliding-door superheroes, because Chrysler is now the only American automaker to offer them.
Town and Country is the upscale luxury model based on the Grand Caravan. It's always provided more than the basic transportation offered by the lower-end machine- namely luxury and comfort in addition to plenty of space. Think of this one as a seven passenger Chrysler 300.
Family Bling
Xenon lighting with chrome wheels and body accenting seem more appropriate on a prestigious sedan, though Town and Country pulls off the high-class look with ease. It's largely a flat and plain looking body, but the jewelry is nice. If 50-Cent needed a minivan, this is what he'd drive.
On board, an inviting selection of colors and textures is applied throughout. Light wood trim and khaki-colored leather seats with suede set the tone, while aluminum and other metallic accenting brighten up the scenery. LED lighting electrifies the cabin at nighttime, when it's less like getting into a minivan and more like boarding a cruise ship. The visual execution of Town and Country's cabin knocks the current offerings from Korean and Japanese competitors clean out of the water.
Dash and console materials used are slightly poor for the price though. Soft touch panels could be found in Chrysler vans 15 years ago- but not anymore.
Very usable
Storage spaces abound, and the collapsible console is useful for any item you can carry in your pocket. There are more storage compartments than most know what to do with, and the rear row of seats easily folds flat into the deep cargo hold to accommodate larger items. Rear seats can even be flipped backwards for a chaise-lounge tailgate party.
