The 1989 Dodge Caravan is a popular year for car collectors because of a rare turbocharged 2.5-liter, 150-horsepower engine option. It was available in the 5-speed manual and 3-speed automatic versions. Because Chrysler sold very few, the manual turbo version is extremely rare and has achieved a certain cult status.
The turbo engine certainly gave the 1989 Dodge Caravan more speed and pick-up, and is often modified by car enthusiasts who want to see just how fast they can get it to go. There is a claimed record out there of a quarter mile in 12.6 seconds.
Also new for 1989 is an electronically controlled 4-speed "Ultradrive" automatic, which proved disastrous. The Mini Ram Van had its named changed to Caravan C/V. The Dodge Caravan offers seven trims -- base, SE, LE, the Grand Caravan SE and LE, and the C/V standard and extended. Fuel economy averages about 21/23 across all models.
Praised mostly for its durability,solid, comfortable ride, and cargo capacity, the Dodge Caravan does receive complaints about engine and transmission problems.
There is a 1989 Dodge caravan for sale inVancouver B.C, Unfortuantly the transmission is hooped and would be a great parts car. Call James 604-255-4596
My 2016 Grand Caravan drivers side sliding door will not unlock. It’s a manually opening door , not electronic. Only have 13000 miles on this car and bought because it didn’t have all the electronic gadgets that malfunction and cost $$$ to get fixed.
