Dodge recently announced plans to remove the Journey and Grand Caravan from its lineup. Certainly, few other people have heard this devastating news. Because that same day, he revealed that each and every style of Dodge, with the exception of the Journey and Grand Caravan. Of course, I would now have the option of a 700 hp Hellcat SRT engine. The reason they killed the Journey and the Great Caravan instead of driving this engine is one of life’s wonderful tragedies.
Where everyone had run out of words in the face of the crazy news of power, I lamented the disappearance of the original American van. You can paint me as an incredibly unhappy person, but I think the MPV rule. of the now ubiquitous SUV, the deficient minivan has significantly outperformed both marketing departments and consumers. Which is a shame, because we like an old, smart minivan.
They were fashionable in the late 80s and 90s, with the Renault Earea being the pioneering minivan of the general public. With a monstrous interior area and flexible seating structure, the minivans offer unlimited opportunities to rearrange the captain’s seats. on a roll all you want, mobile office?Are you sure, Peripetic Pipast dues Studio? Covered picnic arena?Easy.
For most of us, the time will come when, however, you will have to sell the two-seater sports car and upgrade it with something spacious and ‘easy to see’. I say take out the Skoda Karoq and buy a minivan. , minivans don’t drive like cars, but that’s because they drive like vans. And have you ever blown up a van? It’s a glorious harmony of joy and terror, providing the same pleasure of sphincter whistles as this two-seater sports car you have to sell.
And young children love them. Any child who has had the thrill of being delivered to the badminton/ballet/musket shooting categories on the back of a third generation Space will verify that it is not a car, but a blimmin spacecraft. With a fixed wraparound board in the center that housed a virtual view of all the seats and fueling tables at the rear of the two front seats, young people can feel like a member of the Rebel Alliance when they are trapped in traffic.
But what frustrates me is with the evolution towards electrified travel, no other car is as suitable for electric architecture as a minivan. With massive wheelbases, there’s plenty of room for a battery hive in a skateboard chassis. So basically, you put on a glorified explorer. But not only does it have a car, but it also has plenty of room for activities. Plus, with ever-larger screens, create the screen length you can place on the back of a futuristic minivan. The Tesla Model 3 would look like a Game Boy. In addition, a minivan can look a futuristic and elegant shape much larger than the unsightly looks of crossover cars like the Polestar 2.
So let’s start the petition to make it easy to kill minivans now, then innovate and adapt one to the fashionable family. Who’s with me?
