“My experience with multiple G Caravans has proven that for practical reliable family and business usage it cannot be beaten. Value is great, reliability is with out compare. Iacocca was a genius. From people hauling during the week to projects on the weekend it is the best all around vehicle available - I've driven 18 in my adult life. If you want a car to assuage your ego - you don't need a car you need a therapist.”
2020 Dodge Grand Caravan: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
For 2020, the Dodge Grand Caravan received a light trim-and-equipment update led by more standard convenience features on SE Plus; most of the van carried over. This was also the Grand Caravan's final U.S. model year.
About the 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan
5th generation (RT, 2008-2020), final model year.
The 2020 Grand Caravan is a value-focused seven-passenger minivan built around simple family hauling. Dodge marketed the model around flexible seating, Stow 'n Go cargo usefulness, V6 power, and familiar controls rather than cutting-edge tech. For most buyers, its appeal was straightforward: lots of passenger and cargo room, fold-flat seating, and a lower-cost alternative to newer minivans like the Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Odyssey, and Toyota Sienna.
The 2020 lineup ranges from the basic seven-seat SE to the more family-focused SXT, which has second-row seats that fold into the floor, power sliding doors, and a power liftgate. GT is the most fully equipped version, with leather-trimmed seating, navigation, upgraded audio, and a sport-tuned suspension.
What changed, by category
Trim lineup
The SE and SXT 35th Anniversary Edition trims were dropped for 2020.
Powertrain
GT, SE, SE Plus, and SXT switched from flexible-fuel versions to gas versions. The 3.6-liter V6, six-speed automatic transmission, and front-wheel drive otherwise carried over.
Tech and convenience
Bluetooth and the touchscreen became standard on SE. The touchscreen became standard on SE Plus and SXT, while SE Plus also gained a standard power-adjustable driver's seat.
Styling and utility
Roof rails changed from standard to optional on SE Plus, so they are not fitted to every 2020 example.

2020 Dodge Grand Caravan
(103 reviews)
“I wish automatic door and hatch closure were standard. I would like a choice of interior colors. Great, dependable vehicle.”
“I think the design, creativity and manufacturing quality are outstanding in my new Caravan. I only need (and can afford) one vehicle so I buy the most versatile vehicle I can find. I can haul lumber, furniture, mulch, etc. everything always seems to fit. And I can haul passengers if I need to. Add great mileage and performance... it's the original ultimate vehicle. That's why I have bought seven in a row.”
