New Minivans For 2011

Buying A New Minivan: 2010 or 2011?

If you want to purchase a new minivan in 2011, you have many different choices. You can purchase from the top 2010 models that are still on the lot or go with a brand new minivan from the 2011 lineup. As vehicles get more and more safety and environmentally conscious, you will find options with better fuel economy and excellent safety ratings. The following vehicles are among the top new minivan choices. Although some of the 2011 models only have a few upgrades to the existing line for 2011, they are well worth a look.

2011 Top 5 New Minivan Options

In 2011, there are several new minivan choices that will satisfy. One is the Toyota Sienna, followed closely by the Kia Sedona. The Honda Odyssey is another stellar choice for a new minivan. However, there are some people who want to stick with classic American products, and for you, the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Caravan are excellent new minivans to look at for 2011.

Toyota Sienna

The official website for the 2011 Toyota Sienna is located at http://www.toyota.com/sienna/. The Toyota Sienna remains a heavy competitor as new minivan options go, despite Toyota having to do some major marketing to keep their brands on top after the recalls in 2010 on some of their vehicles. This is because the Toyota Sienna has been marketed towards men, rather than to the stereotypical soccer mom who drives around a gaggle of kids in her new minivan. However, just as many women enjoy driving the safe and stylish Toyota Sienna. Moms and dads alike will enjoy the 19 miles per gallon city that the 2011 Toyota Sienna achieves, as well as the overall affordability of this new minivan. If you’re looking to please the kids with your new minivan purchase, the 2011 Toyota Sienna is a sure bet with available ottoman-style reclining bucket seats and a 16.4-inch widescreen video display.

Kia Sedona

The official website of the 2011 Kia Sedona is located at http://www.kia.com/#/sedona/explore/360-views-and-colors-exterior/. Kia is known for its safety features, and the 2011 Kia Sedona new minivan does not disappoint. Some of the 2011 Kia Sedona features include airbag and seatbelt latch sensors, an impact absorbing steering column, and six full airbags placed throughout the cabin to protect all passengers in the vehicle. The backup warning system and the auto light control system are added perks for this popular new minivan.

Honda Odyssey

The official website for the 2010 Honda Odyssey is located at http://automobiles.honda.com/odyssey/. Known for its sleek styling, alloy wheels, and power sliding doors, the Honda Odyssey new minivan achieves 17 miles per gallon city and 23 miles per gallon highway. In 2011, advanced technology like the Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®, Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™ with Voice Recognition and Rearview Camera, and the Tri-Zone Climate Control system are combined with improved fuel economy and interior modifications. The second row bench seat can accommodate up to three car seats for larger families, making the 2011 Honda Odyssey an excellent choice for larger families with small children.

Chrysler Town & Country

The official website for the 2010 Chrysler Town & Country is located at http://www.chrysler.com/en/2010/town_country/. This popular vehicle is available with a flex fuel 4-speed transmission or two standard gasoline models with 6-speed transmissions. Four models are available including the LX, Touring, Touring Plus, and special Walter P. Chrysler Signature Series. Multimedia capabilities vary to include SIRIUS Satellite Radio, 9-inch video displays, and a CD/DVD/HD Media Center. For 2011, the Chrysler Town & Country has the popular Swivel ’n Go table-and-chairs arrangement that turn your new minivan into a family room on wheels.

Dodge Caravan

The official website for the 2010 Dodge Caravan is located at http://www.dodge.com/en/2010/grand_caravan/. The website boasts that the Dodge Caravan has more multimedia choices than your home. Now, that’s something to look for in a new minivan. The Dodge Caravan remains popular with consumers because it holds a five star front and side crash test rating, which is the highest a vehicle can get. In 2011, this popular minivan will get a few tweaks to the interior and exterior, but essentially the 2010 model remains as fuel efficient and safe as the 2011 model. Whether you choose the 2011 new minivan or the 2010 model for your family, the Dodge Caravan remains a safe, reliable investment in a new minivan.
