4. Dodge Caravan: Mainstreaming the Family Van
In the 1990s, the Dodge Caravan set design standards and family features for modern minivans, affecting layouts and comforts seen in vans today. The introduction of the Easy-Out Roller Seats in 1995 simplified seat removal and reconfiguration, enhancing interior flexibility. Additionally, the availability of a driver’s-side sliding door improved accessibility, a feature now common in contemporary minivans. (en.wikipedia.org)
