The Fifth Generation Restyling 1 Dodge Caravan is a family Minivan aimed at daily hauling. You get sliding-door access and gasoline automatics suited to school runs, grocery trips, and highway miles.
A Dodge Caravan engine in this restyle is a gasoline unit with an automatic transmission and a front-wheel-drive drivetrain. The 3.8 AT and 3.6 AT examples both send power forward, so you commute without a clutch. This powertrain favors quiet family miles over sporty response.
