It offers an eight-speed automatic transmission only. It moves with an amazingly gracious sense of ease despite its big and heavy size because of its silky smooth acceleration and cruising manners. Suspension of the minivan is no doubt kept very smooth keeping rough stuff away and let you cruise around the town nicely.
