2011 Chrysler Town & Country Trims and Specs

Fresh from a mid-cycle update, the 2011 Chrysler Town & Country Touring features improved driving dynamics and lots of crowd-pleasing comfort and convenience features. New design cues, including a blinged-out grille, impart a certain style that's missing from its competitors.

Like many Chryslers this year, the 2011 Town & Country Touring benefits greatly from the all-new corporate V6 engine, dubbed Pentastar. Displacing 3.6 liters and featuring (finally) all-aluminum construction and 24 valves with dual variable timing, the Pentastar represents a $2 billion investment and performs with remarkable vigor and smoothness. 283 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque ensure confident acceleration, while the new 6-speed transmission delivers smooth, timely gear changes.

Interior flexibility has long been the Town & Country's strong suit, and the 2011 Touring is sure to win growing families over with its suite of convenient touches. The excellent Stow 'n Go seating package is standard and makes accessing the van's cavernous cargo space a breeze. Up front, a new dash design with better-quality materials is a welcome improvement, while the power seat and adjustable pedals will make any driver feel comfortable.

With a healthy dose of luxury and convenience, the 2011 Chrysler Town & Country Touring-L offers nearly everything upscale families are looking for in a minivan. An all-new powertrain, plus interior revisions and some design tweaks, help the 2011 Town & Country Touring-L stay near the top of the Minivan pack.

The 2011 Town & Country Touring-L's new Pentastar V6 engine churns out 283 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. More importantly, its all-aluminum construction and 24-valve layout make for smooth, refined operation. A slick-shifting 6-speed automatic transmission is standard and provides quick, timely gear changes. Though all-wheel drive isn't offered, the combination of front-drive and traction control should make the Town & Country Touring-L a decent winter performer.

Stepping inside, the 2011 Town & Country Touring-L's cabin has been upgraded with a new dashboard and switchgear that looks much classier. As the middle trim level, the Touring-L benefits from the luxury of standard leather upholstery, remote start and a power passenger's seat.

Heavily revised this year, the 2011 Chrysler Town & Country Limited immediately impresses with its refined new powertrain and luxurious interior. Some subtle styling tweaks help make the 2011 Town & Country Limited look more aggressive, while a host of kid-friendly features make long road trips less daunting.

Under the hood, the 2011 Town & Country Limited gets Chrysler's excellent all-new Pentastar V6 engine. With 283 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, the Town & Country Limited accelerates with exceptional enthusiasm. A new 6-speed automatic transmission delivers smooth gear changes and quick kickdowns.

As the top trim in the lineup, the 2011 Town & Country Limited comes loaded with luxury features like standard heated leather seats and keyless, push-button start. The unique Stow 'n Go seating arrangement allows for easy configuration of the cargo bay, while the standard xenon headlamps help light the way. The 2011 Town & Country Limited also offers a kid-pleasing rear seat video system with standard satellite TV that includes Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel, a feature that both kids and parents will surely appreciate.
