There are three Grand Caravan models for 2020: SE, SE Plus and SXT. All Grand Caravans come with a 3.6L V6 engine that makes 283 horsepower and a 6-speed automatic with AUTOSTICK manual control.
Anti-lock brakes, tire pressure monitoring, multi-stage front air bags and supplemental side curtain air bags for all three rows of seats are standard equipment, which contribute to its across-the-board 5-star safety ratings from the NHTSA. All Grand Caravans also get an electronic stability program and a ParkView back-up camera.
Convenience is a must in any minivan. All Grand Caravans get the third row Stow 'n Go seats that fold completely into the floor to maximize cargo space.
The SE trim comes with heated mirrors, variable wipers, a CD/MP3-compatible stereo, an audio input jack, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel, power windows and locks, keyless entry, dual-zone air conditioning with separate rear controls, stability control, easy-clean floor mats and body-color exterior trim.
The SE Plus trim gets fog lamps, a remote starter, automatic headlights, three zone climate control and Uconnect hands-free voice control for the infotainment. Optioning the SE Plus trim also gives buyers the Black Top Appearance package, which outfits the Grand Caravan with blacked out trim details and black wheels.
The SXT brings standard aluminum wheels, sunscreen glass, power rear-quarter windows and 3-zone air conditioning, Bluetooth streaming audio with steering wheel-mounted audio controls, a power 8-way driver's seat and fog lamps. Add the Entertainment Group and the Grand Caravan gets Sirius satellite radio along with a second row DVD/Blu-ray entertainment system.
The Grand Caravan can be outfitted to tow up to 3,600 lbs. with the Trailer Tow Group, which includes a hitch with 2-inch receiver, a wiring harness as well as a load leveling and height control system.
The 2020 Dodge Caravan carries minor changes to the lineup heading into what could be its last year of production. The SE and SXT trims also have an optional Blacktop Package with an exclusive blacked-out appearance that includes 7-inch Gloss Black aluminum wheels, a Gloss Black grille, black headlamp bezels, an all-black interior, including headliner, door panels and console, premium black cloth seats and door trim panels.
The Grand Caravan was one of the first minivans to make it big in North America and it's still one of the best. The Grand Caravan competes with the Honda Odyssey, the Kia Sedona, the Toyota Sienna and the Chrysler Pacifica and Voyager. It's no wonder the Caravan is still in production with an EPA-estimated mileage on the highway of 25 mpg and plenty of features.
