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 American Value Grand Caravan makes the price of admission a little lower. This trim is a bit more Spartan, but it still comes decently equipped -- especially for the price. The American Value 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 and stability control.
The SE trim adds 17-inch alloy wheels, rear air conditioning, easy-clean floor mats and body-color exterior trim, as well as the option of adding aluminum wheels and second row power windows by way of the SE Plus Group. SE Plus also includes a one-year subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio.
The SXT brings standard aluminum wheels, sunscreen glass, power rear-quarter windows and 3-zone air conditioning. Add the Entertainment Group and the Grand Caravan gets Sirius satellite radio along with a second row DVD/Blu-ray entertainment system. New standard features on the SXT for 2018 include Bluetooth streaming audio and steering wheel-mounted audio controls, as well as a power 8-way driver's seat and fog lamps.
The GT trim equips the van with performance-tuned suspension, leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a 40GB hard-drive stereo, a 6.5" touchscreen interface, navigation and Bluetooth.
The Grand Caravan can be outfitted to tow up to 3,600 lb with the Trailer Tow Group, which includes a heavy-duty radiator, transmission oil cooler, load leveling and wiring harness.
