- New six-speed transaxle is a minivan first
- New 4.0-liter, V-6 engine offers increased horsepower and torque
- Aerodynamic improvements and new suspension architecture add up to a pleasant driving experience

AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Aug. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- A minivan-first six- speed transaxle is available for 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.

The six-speed transaxle benefits include smaller steps between ratios which change the engine speed less, resulting in shifts that feel smoother, a higher numerical first gear that launches the minivan more briskly than a four- or five-speed transaxle and wide open throttle kickdown shifts that engage at a slightly higher ratio to provide needed acceleration with less engine flare.

Proven powertrains like a 3.3-liter V-6 engine that can be fueled with E85 and new options like a 4.0 liter V-6 engine that produces 251 hp and 259 lb.- ft of torque give drivers plenty of fresh choices in the new 2008 Chrysler Group minivans.
