The Chrysler Town & Country shares the Dodge Grand Caravan's equipment and features, although the Town & Country's exterior is more distinguished. The main difference is in brand image; the Town & Country is more focused on comfort and amenities than on sport. The seven-seat minivan comes in LX, Touring and Limited trim levels, and competes with minivans such as the Toyota Sienna, Honda Odyssey and Hyundai Entourage.
There are no significant changes for 2010.
While the Town & Country is a minivan its styling makes it similar to the crossover SUV that are so popular.

The 2010 Chrysler Town & Country seats seven people. The popular Stow 'n Go second-row seats fold into the floor, but they now offer the option of Swivel 'n Go captain's chairs in the second row. These seats each rotate 180 degrees to face the third row and slide fore and aft .
The Town & Country offers power-folding, 60/40-split third-row seats with one-touch operation, up or down. Optional seat heaters for the front- and second-row seats, both in stain-resistant cloth and leather are a great plus. An optional integrated child booster seat for larger kids is offered with Swivel 'n Go but not with the Stow 'n Go seats.
The Town & Country also has optional power windows, power sliding doors and a power liftgate. There are many storage compartments, pockets and bins throughout the interior, including a dual glove compartment. The floor console between the front seats has removable, dishwasher-safe cupholders. An optional console has many sliding drawers that can open individually or together, including from the backseat, and contains a 12-volt power outlet.

The Town & Country comes with a choice of three V-6 engines: Standard is a flex-fuel 3.3-liter V-6 that can run on gasoline, E85 or any combination of the two. Higher trim levels come with a 3.8-liter or 4.0-liter V-6. The gear selector, which looks like a center-console shifter, is located high on the dashboard, to the right of the gauges.
- 175-horsepower, 3.3-liter V-6 with 205 pounds-feet of torque
- 197-hp, 3.8-liter V-6 with 230 pounds-feet of torque

There are two features to ease backing up and parking: a rear sonar sensor, standard on all trims, that sends an audible alarm when things are behind the van, and an optional rearview camera. A blind spot monitoring system and Chrysler's Rear Cross Path accident-avoidance system are optional. They sound an alarm and light an indicator on the side mirror when something is in the blind spot or approaching from behind the van, respectively. Rain-sensing wipers and auto-dimming headlamps are also available on Touring and Limited trims. Standard safety features include:
- Side curtain airbags for all three seat rows
- Antilock brakes and traction control
- Electronic stability system
