As far as minivans go, Chrysler really did/does the best job figuring out what the North American market wants. They absolutely own the market. We had an '02 Dodge Grand Caravan and I liked it as far as the space, comfort, drivability, and interior were concerned (had some nagging electrical issues though).

If VW are going to do a minivan for North America, a partnership with Chrysler really makes the most sense. They've clearly failed trying to do it on their own.
