In 1988, the Chrysler Voyager underwent an upgrade. The second restyling took place in 1990, and, by the way, at the same time there was a modification with all-wheel drive based on a viscous clutch, created by Austriaby the Steyr company. Having quickly mastered the American minivan market, Chrysler paved the way to Europe. And while the rest of the European manufacturers, realizing themselves, were developing their projects, Voyager was so entrenched in the Old World that in August 1992 minivans for Europe began to be assembled at the EuroStar plant in Graz (Austria).

The driver and three passengers have individual seats, with an armrest, which you can get rid of if you wish.

An advantage that cannot be overlooked is the wide sliding doors: they are not only convenient in a tight parking lot, but also noticeably simplify boarding in the back row, and when using the car as a van, loading. Taking into account the children, safety measures have been thought out - the door pushed all the way back is fixed, and then you can close it only by pulling the handle (if from the inside, then by pressing the button) of the lock. As an option, you canShow and electric drive, even with a remote control - Chrysler Voyager, by the way, is considered a pioneer in this area.

All passenger seats can be folded, or they can be completely pulled out of the car - if you need to carry the volumeny cargoes. And here, by the way, Chrysler is proud of the fact that it was the first to use such a system, and even with rollers for better "removal" of seats from the passenger compartment - Easy-Out Roller Seats.

The soft, comfortable suspension “swallows” bumps and holes. The steering wheel of the "Traveler" is light, but at the same time not devoid of feedback, the brakes are good. The handling for a minivan is at a high level. The Voyager's roll in corners is minimal.
