Minivans / Van Traffic

Silhouette minivan

The Oldsmobile Silhouette had a 14-year production run that lasted from 1990 to 2004. The Silhouette was designed with luxury in mind and became the flagship minivan for the brand. Like other minivans of its time, the Silhouette had stiff competition from the newly released Chrysler Town & Country. The unfortunate discontinuation of the Oldsmobile brand led to the demise of not only the Silhouette but also all of the cars in its lineup. The Silhouette was provided with three …

Ford C-Max minivan

Three Rows, but Only Two Full-Size The C-Max officially holds seven passengers, but the seating configuration is best described as five-plus-two. The two most rearward seats lack headroom for adults—although they would be adequate for short trips—but smaller children should fit fine. Keeping the third row folded keeps cargo capacity reasonable, as the van accommodates 25 cubic feet behind the second row; only three cubic feet remain in seven-passenger mode. Fold every seat, and …

Credit Kevin Moloney for The New York Times DETROIT — Could driving a minivan, the ultimate embodiment of the suburban family vehicle, ever be considered cool? The automakers are trying mightily to persuade us.

Porsche minivan

If you ve ever seen one of these on the street and wondered what it is, here s your answer: It s the VPG MV-1. If it seems a bit odd to you, that s because it is. I still remember the first time I saw a VPG MV-1. I was working for Porsche at the time, and someone sent us a picture of Jerry Seinfeld standing on a Manhattan street next to his new 911 GT3, GT3 RS or some other highly cool new Porsche that he had customized in some highly cool Jerry Seinfeld way. And there, in back …

Stow away seats minivan

Pull the carpet that is in front of the seat upwards with both of your hands, and place it to the side. It s preferable to place these carpets outside the vehicle when you do so, but after a few times, you ll be able to determine just how much space you ll need to use to be able to find a place to put these. Pulling up the carpeting, will expose the cabinets that will later hold your seats. Ensure that both headrests are down. If there is a lever or pull-cord to fold these headrests …

Mazda small minivan

It remains the only new Mazda available for sale today that hasn’t moved on from the Nagare styling language, as the rest of the lineup has been refreshed or redesigned to adhere to the gorgeous Kodo aesthetic that debuted with the introduction of the Mazda CX-5 crossover in late 2011. We drove a loaded 2015 Mazda 5 Grand Touring model for this review; compared with lower trim levels, it adds leather upholstery, a power sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, heated side mirrors, automatic …

Hippie, minivan

That is what I called her. “Ma belle Grand-maman”. And that is what she was. 5 years ago, my grandmother was diagnosed we stomach cancer. Being 85 years old, doctors didn’t want to treat her with chemo, saying that she was to old, and instead they took the cancer out bu taking out 75% of her stomach. The same type of surgery that is done for weight loss so though it stopped the cancer, she struggled to stay close to 100lbs. Over the next five years, there were high and lows with …

Minivan with rotating seats

Stow n Go Gets a Friend: Swivel n Go Stow n Go breathed new life into Chrysler minivan sales and essentially gave the automaker a head start on the 2008 model that takes innovation a step further with its patented Swivel n Go that transforms the van into a dining car. The second-row bucket seats pivot (seatbelts are mounted to the seat structure) to become rear facing, allowing passengers (adults fit, but not always gracefully) to belly up to an optional removable table for …

Minivan VS SUV cargo space

As fuel prices soar, many consumers are reevaluating their choice of family hauler. Sure, we hear stories about people trading a Chevy Suburban for a Toyota Prius, but if they can manage that, they didn t really need the large SUV in the first place. What about those of us with growing families who really need three rows of seating? What are we to do? Minivans became an instant hit with families when they were invented by Chrysler in the 80s. At some point they began a slow decline …
