From 1990 to 2016 Chrysler produced the family-oriented Town & Country minivan. The first-generation Chrysler Town & Country model entered the market in 1990 and employed the Chrysler K platform to support its front-engine front-wheel-drive design. The first Town & Country models used the 3.0L Mitsubishi 6G72 V6 engine producing 142 horsepower but the later generations ran on the 3.3L EGA V6 engine with a 4-speed A604 automatic transmission to improve both performance and efficiency. The seating system named "Quad Command" enabled manual position adjustments and the vehicle included built-in child safety seats to serve its targeted family market. The vehicle equipped with anti-lock brakes (ABS) as a safety feature that improved braking capabilities. A hybrid version of the Town & Country emerged from Chrysler during 2008 but the hybrid release was not a plug-in model and they discontinued the project. The company promotes genuine parts through its policies because these parts satisfy rigorous quality standards which result in superior durability and operational reliability. Advanced technology together with features suited for families led the Chrysler Town & Country to maintain its reputation as a versatile family vehicle throughout its whole production cycle.
