Generations

While the Chrysler Grand Voyager was sold in other markets, it wasn't imported to the UK until 1997, during the model's third generation. Several generations and refreshes were released in the UK to ensure that it remained compliant and refined, but official imports of the MPV stopped in 2015.

Fifth Generation (2008-2015)

Chrysler had already earned a reputation for creating family vehicles by the time that this generation arrived. The carmaker added features and materials that would elevate the vehicle above the competition.

Seating configurations for these models included the typical 2-3-2 layout, for a total capacity of seven. Also, the gear shift lever was strategically placed on the centre console between the seats, which was a significant difference from models in left-hand drive markets.

Fourth Generation (2001-2007)

For the start of the fourth generation, Chrysler wanted the MPV to be more refined and luxurious. Top-spec models offered a DVD-based rear-seat entertainment system to keep children occupied while travelling. Anti-lock brakes were also offered for added safety.

The engine lineup remained the same, with efficiency slightly altered. During this generation, there was a good selection of options (engines, variants and features) available.

Third Generation (1997-2000)

The Chrysler Grand Voyager had previously been available in other markets, under various names. It was the longer-wheelbase version of the smaller Voyager. In 1997, Chrysler started importing the MPV to our shores.

Different powertrains arrived with it from the US. The 2.0-litre and 2.5-litre turbo diesel engines were specifically made with European standards in mind. There was also a six-passenger configuration with individual captain's chairs that wasn't available anywhere else.
