3 Family-Fun Features in the 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan

The Dodge Grand Caravan in Miami always has been, and still is, praised for it’s safety features. For the 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan, however, these features are accompanied by some family-fun features that are unique to the newer generation. The 2016 Grand Caravan sports a Blu-Ray and DVD feature for the kids, capable performance for dad, and tailgate seating for a spontaneous picnic.

Whether you’re considering the 2016 Grand Caravan for safety or fun, it’s got you covered from front-bumper to rear-bumper.

A Blu-Ray and DVD Double Feature

The Grand Caravan is considered to be the most awarded minivan ever, and with good reason. Dodge has always made it a point to improve upon what consumers love about this vehicle, and add what consumers want. Which is why the 2016 Grand Caravan is the first and only in it’s class to offer a dual-screen Blu-Ray and DVD Entertainment System. This system is far more advanced than the first DVD players that came into play many years ago. Whether you select the DVD-base system with a single 9-inch VGA screen, or the Blu-Ray system with two 9-inch VGA video screens, you get more than just a way to play movies.

This is because both options come with two sets of wireless infrared headphones, a remote control, HDMI connection, and two rear USB ports. Those USB ports are so the ones who want to play video games can stay charged-up, ensuring that no matter where you go you’re ready to play.

An Engine for Dad

The family also includes dad, and he won’t feel like he’s being left out with the engine in the 2016 Grand Caravan; which is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. This engine has a best-in-class 283 horsepower, and best-in-class 260 pound-feet of torque. It has dual-overhead camshafts, high flow intake and exhaust ports, Variable Valve Timing, and Electronic Throttle Control. These features help improve both the power and fuel-efficiency of the engine, and allow it to get a rating of 17 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.

Those are impressive numbers for a minivan of this size. Even more impressive though, is when equipped with the proper equipment, the Grand Caravan can tow up to 3,000 pounds. Which gives dad the opportunity to tow around a small trailer if he needs to go pick up a new wood-stove for all the firewood he chops.

Tailgate Seating

The third, but certainly not the last, family-fun feature for this list of the 2016 Grand Caravan is the tailgate seating. When the Dodge Grand Caravan is parked, the third row seats can flip completely rearward. These seats can be flipped individually, and can also recline in both the forward and rear-facing positions. This is a unique feature the Grand Caravan has when compared to most other vehicles, and allows you and your family to experience a whole new type of spontaneous fun. Grab your lunch and the kids, and drive out to your favorite picnic spot won the weekend.

With features like these, and many more, your family is sure to be entertained whether it’s a quick trip to the store, or a cross-country road trip. The 2016 Grand Caravan is packed from bumper-to-bumper with entertainment for the whole family.
