Appearance(s) | GTA IV The Lost and Damned The Ballad of Gay Tony GTA V GTA Online |
The Minivan in GTA V appears largely unchanged from its appearance in GTA IV, with minor design updates such as more pronounced wheel arches and side skirting, and a dual-exit exhaust setup. It is a full-size four-door minivan with regular doors, and is based on the 2001-2007 Dodge Caravan, with some deviations such as its grille and rear end.
The interior has been updated in the enhanced version of the game, and the car retains its dual paint colors and wheel design from GTA IV. It is the only vehicle of its body-style in GTA V.
The Minivan has sluggish acceleration due to its heavy weight and 4-speed transmission, making it not an ideal vehicle for getaways. However, its AWD drivetrain and low ride height provide stability when cornering, although under-steer is noticeable.
Braking is good, and the bodywork tends to stay intact in crashes, but driver safety is not optimal in high-speed accidents. The Minivan is not suitable for off-roading, lacking the necessary power and torque to handle steep hills and obstacles.

This vehicle does not appear in any storyline missions of GTA V.
Can be found driven or parked around South Los Santos or Paleto Bay.
The default radio stations for the Minivan are Lowdown FM or Space 103.2.
Vehicles similar in appearance to extended versions of the Minivan appear in Rockstar San Diego's Midnight Club: Los Angeles.
Despite an additional exhaust outlet being added to the vehicle since its appearance in GTA IV, the lower level of detail models still have the original single exhaust setup found in GTA IV. This is likely a developer oversight.
