Dartmouth Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM

2026 Chrysler Grand Caravan

Sold exclusively in Canada, the Chrysler Grand Caravan arrives from Windsor Assembly Plant in Ontario with an equipment list that goes well beyond entry-level expectations. The 3.6-litre Pentastar V-6 generates 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission suited for navigating Halifax-Dartmouth traffic or scenic drives along the South Shore. Seating for seven passengers spans three rows, with the signature Stow 'n Go system allowing rear seats to fold into floor compartments when cargo space takes precedence. Standard features encompass leather-faced seats, heated front seats and steering wheel, power sliding doors, a 10.1-inch Uconnect touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an extensive roster of driver assistance technologies. Priced below $50,000, the Grand Caravan reflects Chrysler's four decades of minivan leadership, purpose-built for Canadian families.

Your Guide to the 2026 Chrysler Grand Caravan

Exterior Design

The front fascia presents a black grille with bright surround accents, positioned below quad halogen reflector headlamps that engage automatically as light diminishes. Body-colour door handles run along the flanks, while gloss black power mirrors integrate heating elements to combat fog and frost common to Maritime mornings. Power sliding doors on both sides ease entry and exit for passengers, a practical feature when parking spaces run narrow at Dartmouth Crossing or along Portland Street.

Overall length reaches 5,176 mm on a wheelbase of 3,089 mm, proportions that deliver spacious accommodations within a manageable footprint. Body width measures 2,022 mm, expanding to 2,297 mm with mirrors extended, and height stands at 1,777 mm. Cast-aluminum 17-inch wheels fitted with 235/65R17 all-season tires handle the varied conditions Nova Scotia weather brings throughout the year. At the rear, the power liftgate opens to reveal a cargo area with 617 mm liftover height, simplifying the loading of luggage, sports gear, or groceries. Ground clearance of 131 mm manages speed bumps and uneven pavement without concern.

Interior Space and Comfort

The cabin adopts an all-black theme featuring leatherette Black Caprice seating surfaces with Light Diesel stitching details. Driver seating includes eight-way power adjustment with four-way lumbar support, while heated cushions warm both front positions during chilly Atlantic winters. The techno leather-wrapped steering wheel offers heating capability and positions audio controls at the driver's fingertips. Storage solutions span the cabin through a super console with covered compartments reaching the second row, a floor tray, locking glove box, and lower instrument panel cubby.

Passenger capacity totals seven across a 2/2/3 arrangement, with second-row Stow 'n Go bucket seats concealing in-floor storage bins. The third-row Stow 'n Go bench joins the second row in folding flat into the floor, creating an unobstructed cargo area when transporting bulky items. Total interior volume amounts to 5,586.9 litres, with 914.6 litres behind the raised third row growing to 3,978.5 litres when both rear rows are stowed. Front occupants enjoy 1,045 mm of legroom and 1,020 mm of headroom; second-row passengers receive 992 mm of legroom. Three-zone automatic climate control allows individualized temperature settings throughout, supported by a high-efficiency cabin air filter.

Powertrain

Chrysler equips every Grand Caravan with the 3.6-litre Pentastar V-6, a 60-degree dual overhead cam engine producing 287 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 262 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. Variable-valve timing on intake and exhaust cams enhances efficiency, while engine stop-start technology conserves fuel during idle periods at traffic signals. The TorqueFlite nine-speed automatic transmission spreads ratios from 4.70:1 in first gear to 0.48:1 in ninth, enabling brisk acceleration and composed highway cruising. Fuel economy ratings of 12.4 L/100 km city, 8.4 L/100 km highway, and 10.6 L/100 km combined balance performance with operating costs. The 71.9-litre fuel tank provides range for excursions to Cape Breton or the Annapolis Valley without frequent stops.

Front-wheel drive transmits power through a suspension calibrated for touring comfort. The front end uses independent MacPherson struts with coil-over gas-charged shock absorbers and a stabilizer bar affixed to a hydroformed steel perimeter cradle. At the rear, an independent twist-blade arrangement pairs coil springs with twin-tube shock absorbers featuring integrated rebound springs. Electric rack and pinion steering yields a 12.1-metre turning diameter, aiding manoeuvres in ferry terminals or downtown streets. Four-wheel disc brakes with antilock functionality ensure confident stopping, complemented by electronic stability control and traction control for slippery conditions.

Technology

The Uconnect 5 system operates via a 10.1-inch touchscreen that serves as the hub for audio, navigation, and connectivity functions. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mirror smartphone applications without requiring a cable connection, while dual phone Bluetooth pairing accommodates two devices simultaneously. Amazon Alexa voice capability responds to spoken commands, and integrated voice command with voice text reply facilitates hands-free communication. A 7-inch digital instrument cluster keeps speed, fuel, and vehicle information within the driver's view, with steering wheel-mounted controls enabling quick audio adjustments. SiriusXM Radio extends entertainment options, delivered through a six-speaker sound system with auxiliary input and USB ports.

Active safety features monitor the driving environment continuously. Adaptive cruise control adjusts speed to maintain set following distances, Blind-spot Monitoring tracks vehicles in adjacent lanes, and Rear Cross Path detection alerts to crossing traffic during reversing. Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking watches for people ahead and can apply brakes autonomously if collision risk rises. ParkSense rear park assist with stop guides parking through audible and visual cues, while the ParkView rear backup camera displays the zone behind the vehicle. Seven airbags provide occupant protection: advanced multistage front units, inflatable knee blockers for driver and front passenger, front seat-mounted side airbags, and side-curtain coverage spanning all three rows.

Available Trim Levels and Configurations

The 2026 Chrysler Grand Caravan adopts a single-model approach, delivering comprehensive equipment without requiring buyers to navigate multiple trim levels.
