The Town and Country was Chrysler’s top-selling family vehicle for many years. It was discontinued after the 2016 model year when the new Pacifica minivan took its place in the brand’s lineup.

Toyota’s Sienna has long been a favorite of families who wanted an all-wheel-drive minivan, but its appeal goes deeper than that one feature. The Sienna changes in very important ways for 2021 that make it hard to pass up for those seeking the best cost of ownership in this segment.
