1999 Chrysler Town & Country Overview
Introduction
Most minivan makers worry how they can distinguish
themselves from the pack.But the Chrysler Town & Country
solved that problem by inventing a category all its own: the
luxury minivan. |
It's no stretch to say
that the Town & Country leads the pack when it comes to
styling, comfort, spaciousness and quality.Indeed, the Town
& Country offers so many refinements, and coddles the driver
with so many amenities, that it can go toe to toe with many
luxury sedans.It even rides like a car.
This year, Chrysler has raised the bar again by adding the
high-end Limited to a Town & Country stable that already
included the SX and the plush LX and LXi.
One of the ways Chrysler stays a step ahead of the
competition is by offering varying configurations to suit
different types of buyers.The company gives buyers a choice
among three nameplates -- Chrysler Town & Country, Plymouth
Voyager and Dodge Caravan.Each comes in short- and long-wheelbase
versions, and in several different trim levels.Front-wheel
drive is standard on the Town & Country, but it can be
ordered with all-wheel drive, a definite plus in the snow
belt.
By offering a long list of luxury-line features, the
Chrysler Town & Country is the only true luxury minivan.And
the new Limited offers, as standard equipment, further
luxury-line comforts, like leather seats with suede accents,
a rear bench seat with center armrests and steering wheel-mounted
audio controls.
A cargo net was added between the front seats of the LX and
LXi this year that's handy for keeping purses, a small bag
of groceries or other odds and ends from sliding around. |
