Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Excellent ride and handling, refined drivetrain, comfortable and luxurious interior.

Cons

No fold-flat third-row seat, unimpressive reliability history, potentially pricey.

What’s new

Two new options debut, a power sunroof (that Dodge boasts as one of the largest available in a minivan) and a factory-, not dealer-, installed DVD entertainment system that comes with wireless headphones. Audiophiles will appreciate the CD changer being upgraded from four-disc capacity to six.

Edmunds says

Pleasant to drive and ride in but lacking a few key features and the rock-solid reliability record of certain rivals.

2003 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport Fwd 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)

I did not want to buy a minivan. But in 2004 I bought a 2003 with 11K on it for $11K. This car has been fantastic. It took us through the western states camping. It moved us from one house to another. It has hauled carpool kids, craigslist finds, saddles, hay, dogs, beds and building materials. It averaged 29 mpg when we first got it on the highway, it now gets a solid 21 city/hiway. It …

2003 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport Fwd 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
