Chrysler Grand Voyager TD (2008) CAR review

Is this an all-new model then?

Yes. Chrysler has lengthened the wheelbase and claims to have made at least 30 major improvements to its popular people carrier. The most important of these is a comfier, more supple ride and better refinement. The newly independent firm has also worked hard at making the Grand Voyager even more family-friendly. The highlight of this is the all-new, and unique-to-Chrysler, Swivel ’n Go system.

Sounds a bit rude

Yes the insulting implications seem to have been lost on the Americans who dreamt it up. Swivel ’n Go is actually their seating system which is a development of Stow ’n Go. Now as well as folding into the floor, the two middle seats turn through 180 degrees so passengers in the second row can face the back. The seatbelts have been integrated into the chairs so you can travel facing backwards too. And there’s also a nifty table that screws into the floor between the second and third rows.
