Standard Engine
on all US spec left hand drive Chrysler Town
and Country & Dodge Grand Caravan is the:
-
3.8L V6, 12 valve, 215 hp @
5200 rpm
-
245 lb-ft of torque @
4000rpm
-
4 speed fuzzy logic
electronically controlled automatic transmission
-
18 mpg city / 25 mpg
highway (Not as bad as it sounds since US gallons are
undersized! A UK gallon is 1.20 US gallons. So its
nearer 30 to the gallon on a motorway.
Standard engine on the UK
versions are 3.3 V6 (Not a very nice motor compared to the
3.8 V6) or the 2.8 Diesel which is OK for economy but has
all the usual Diesel disadvantages like limited RPM range,
noise, more frequent oil changes, smell etc. But some people
like them! God knows why.
Comments. The UK
version (the Grand Voyager) gets either the 4 cylinder
Mercedes sourced 2.8 Common Rail Diesel, which is noisy and
agricultural like all diesels (modern or otherwise), or the
3.3 V6 which is a very thrashy coarse engine when revved
with a lack of low rpm power.
They come in Red, Gold,
Silver, Black Light Blue, Dark Blue, light green, and white!
This one is stock and not a Rollx
or Braun, or VMI ramp Van.
Just to show the colours! The one lower down the page is Gold obviously!.
So if buying a Voyager in the UK you better get the diesel!
And I don't like Diesels! The 3.8 V6 is a much nicer
engine than both of these two but only comes with the US
imported Left Hand Drive version like my one. It too does
not like revving hard but its got the low down power so does
not need to do so. And here its silky smooth and quiet!
Weight:
(Before having all the serious modifications done and
the middle row of seats removed - I would think that its
probably about the same now as the seats cancel the extra
body panels and extended doors etc.)
