In marketing campaigns featuring heavy-metal theme songs, rapping parents, secret agents in cat masks, pyrotechnics and even Godzilla, minivan makers are trying to recast …

Dustbuster minivan

In the 1980s, Chrysler was eating GM s lunch when it came to the hot new segment of the day, Minivans. GM in its particularly 1980s hubris said they were developing a minivan that was going to blow its ChryslerCo rivals out of the water. That, uh, didn t happen. The car at the center of this story is the Pontiac Trans Sport.

Mini Van Diesel

I m afraid that s utter bollocks when it comes to the 2014 model. The V-Class is not a simple rebadging exercise of the Viano but a brand new car from the ground up. It has nothing to do with any panel van. Mercedes wanted to integrate its minivan into its passenger car portfolio, and in order for it to fit, they put as many features of the S and C-Class into this car as possible. It s a big step forward in terms of quality. I know because I was driving it s predecessor, the 2013 …

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.

And there, in back …

Minivan VS SUV cargo space

As fuel prices soar, many consumers are reevaluating their choice of family hauler.

At some point they began a slow decline …

8 Passenger minivan models

When it comes to moving as many people as possible—short of a bus—it’s pretty hard to beat a Van. While only three of the current crop of car-based minivans qualifies as one of the best eight passenger vans, the traditional models fill in the gaps nicely. Of course with those, you’ll forego many of the de rigueur comfort and convenience amenities lavished upon occupants by the contemporary minivan, but what you give up in plush, you more than make up for in passenger capacity …

Weight of minivan

As anyone who’s ever experienced the consequences of an overstuffed grocery bag can attest, it’s not always a good idea to cram more stuff in just because you think it will fit. The same thing holds true with cars, although chances are that load capacity isn’t very high on most buyer’s list of priorities when choosing a new model. That’s a shame, as that capacity may be even lower than you think. The truth is that many new family sedans, SUVs, compacts, and subcompact models are …
