The Chrysler minivans are a series of minivans that have been marketed by Chrysler since 1984. Produced in six distinct generations, the Chrysler minivans are sold in North America and Europe.

Throughout its production run, Chrysler has marketed its minivans under each of its brands in North America (with the exception of the Jeep and Eagle brands); through the use of badge engineering, the vehicles have also been sold under the Lancia and Volkswagen brands.

Chrysler has manufactured its minivans at Windsor Assembly, in Ontario, Canada for their entire production run; from 1987 to 2007, additional assembly took place at Saint Louis Assembly in Fenton, Missouri; a limited number of European models were produced by Eurostar in Graz, Austria.

There have so far been six generations of Chrysler minivans:

Since their introduction in November 1983, the Chrysler minivans have outsold other minivans in the United States.

The S platform was a modified variant of the Chrysler K platform used for the Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country and Plymouth Voyager. Chrysler manufactured the Generation I minivans, internally codenamed T-115 during development from October 1983 until 1990.

Models include:

Developed from 1985 to 1989, Generation II was introduced in 1990 and called AS. Design specifications were chosen in 1987 and were evolutionary. This was the last K-based version of the S platform, as the NS platform switched to a new cab forward design.

Models:

The ES platform is the European counterpart to the North American AS platform.

Models:

Generation III of the platform was developed from early 1990 to December 26, 1994, being introduced on January 4, 1995 and called NS. Its cab forward design was defined by September 23, 1991 and inspired by the 1992 Chrysler EPIC concept minivan, designed in-house by Julie Dolan in mid-1991. Final exterior designs were development program approved in May 1992 and frozen for scheduled late 1994 production that same month. The first NS prototypes were built in November 1992 and presented on November 24, 1992 to Chrysler executive management. The 1992 "Reinventing Chrysler" documentary, provided footage of the NS design process in the spring of 1992.
