Overview

In the realm of midsize vans, the 2016 Chrysler Town and Country minivan is well known. Prices go up to MSRP $40,645, with a total of 6 trims being offered. With gorgeous, and in fact quite roomy, interiors, the Town and Country minivan offers seating for up to 7 people. There is a single engine on offer, which is a 3.6L V6 engine attached to a 6-speed automatic transmission, that makes 283 horsepower, and 260 lb-ft of torque. This returns a combined fuel economy of 20 MPG. Despite a curb weight of 4,652 pounds, this engine feels potent enough. Chrysler offers a decent amount of practical as well as cosmetic features, further increasing the prospects of the Town and Country minivan among competitors like the Honda Odyssey, the Kia Sedona, and the Toyota Sienna.
