Hi,
I'm in the process of buying a used car and I'd like a spacious and modern car at the same time, but I was reading the reviews for the SUZUKI and they have good reviews for that car.
Is Suzuki engine and parts better than the Dodge grand caravan?
Please I need your help with this issue
Thanks
 
The suzuki is a SUV and the dodge is a minivan.

The minivan is dead and is being replaced by the crossover suv's like the dodge journey, mazda cx7/cx9
 
The Suzuki will probably be about as reliable as the Dodge in terms of the main drivetrain, engine, etc. However, the Suzuki really is better in terms of the little things. For example, edmunds.com did a year-long test of the Dodge Caravan to see how it holds up to regular use over the course of a year, and what they found is that while the Dodge does not have major failings, little things on it kinda fall apart etc. For example the plastic lining the back gets uneven, plastic pieces tend to fall off, and other little problems like that.

If you don't mind minor things like that, the Dodge has way more character and personality, plus the more modern look, and has unique swivel seating that would please back seat passengers. If you're more worried about little things falling off, etc, then take the Suzuki, but be informed that it is a full SUV, while the Dodge is a very cool looking minivan and will offer better gas mileage than the XL7.
