The Voyager Nameplate Returns to the Chrysler Lineup as Base Minivan & More | MotorWeek Motor News

2024/10/12

Sticking with their all-minivan strategy, at least for the time being, Chrysler is bringing back the Voyager.

The 2025 Chrysler Voyager will serve as an entry-level model below the Pacifica, and unlike last time, it won’t be restricted to fleet purchases. A 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and a nine-speed automatic come standard.

Orders are open now with a starting price around $40,000.

Volkswagen revealed the first major update for their Taos subcompact utility, including additional power and more tech.

The 2025 Volkswagen Taos uses a 1.5-liter turbo-four, now producing 174 horsepower thanks to some engine revisions. The dual-clutch automatic used on all-wheel-drive models is gone, replaced now by a traditional eight-speed auto. Inside, an 8.0-inch infotainment screen comes standard on all four trims, paired up with a digital gauge cluster. These refreshed models are expected to arrive at Volkswagen dealers by the end of the year.

And on the performance side of things, Ford has confirmed that their upcoming Mustang GTD will put out a total 815 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. Ford is currently projecting a top speed of 202 mph, made possible by the high-revving, supercharged 5.2-liter V8.

And that’s it for this week’s Motor News.
