The 2021 Chrysler Grand Caravan and the 2021 Kia Sedona embrace versatility - offering ample seating and custom cargo options. The value of a mini-van should extend beyond space, however. Instead a robust engine suite it needed to assure maximum power on the highway or the trails. Let's compare these two models and see which delivers superior performance.Â
2021 Chrysler Grand Caravan: Engine SpecsÂ
Engine: 3.6L Pentastar V6
Horsepower: 287
Torque: 262 lb-ft
Transmission: 9-speed Automatic
Drive Type: FWD
2021 Kia Sedona: Engine Specs
Engine: 3.3L V6
Horsepower: 276
Torque: 248 lb-ft
Transmission: 8-speed AutomaticÂ
Drive Type: FWD
The Grand Caravan's larger V6 delivers more horsepower and torque, which translates into a towing capacity of 1,633 kg. At the same time, Chrysler's engineering brings superior fuel economy to Canada, utilizing variable valve timing to enhance sequencing. This promotes precise fuel distribution and helps the platform achieve a rate of 8.4 L/100 km on the highway. Unique features, like a nine-speed automatic transmission with a rotary shifter, further separate this mini-van from its Kia competitor and ensure peerless handling.Â
