The Chrysler Town & Country is a luxury passenger minivan manufactured and marketed by Chrysler, a division of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. It was introduced in 1989 for the 1990 model year. After five generations and 27 model year runs, the Town & Country nameplate was discontinued at the end of the 2016 model year and was replaced by the 2017 model year Chrysler Pacifica minivan.
Chrysler group minivans, which include the Dodge Caravan/Dodge Grand Caravan and included the Plymouth Voyager/Plymouth Grand Voyager/Chrysler Voyager, have ranked as the 13th bestselling automotive nameplates worldwide, with over 12 million sold.
The Town & Country nameplate was discontinued at the end of the 2016 model year run and was replaced by the 2017 model year Chrysler Pacifica minivan.
Originally planned to be introduced as a 1989 model, the Chrysler Town & Country minivan was ultimately introduced as a 1990 model in the spring of 1989. The model was introduced before the 1990 model year Caravans and Voyagers entered production; the Dodge and Plymouth counterparts produced alongside the Town & Country until June 1989 were still 1989 models. Sharing the body of the long-wheelbase (LWB) Grand Voyager/Grand Caravan's Chrysler S platform, the Town & Country was externally distinguished by its chrome waterfall grille, crystal pentastar hood ornament, standard woodgrain applique, grooved lower body cladding (a version of that found on the Caravan ES, slightly extended to compensate for the longer wheelbase), and 15" lace-spoke aluminum wheels. Additionally, Town & Country was only available in two exterior colors, initially in Bright White Clearcoat only; the Black Clearcoat color was added in June 1989.
