The Test Of Ownership

See the full experience 
the rundown

Minivans are the most researched vehicles on the road. But a lot of the information out there is written by people who only do a cursoryevalutation of the cars they review. We had a much larger story to tell with real minivan owners and the data that represents their actions. We knew moms and dads would happily dive into all of the details, we just had to create a place that made it incredibly easy for them to do so.

The Building Blocks

We started out with the challenge of doing something progressive for a site that needed to reach a very large and diverse demographic. This led us to a grid focused layout, with minimal design and simple transitions. Then, to add something extra, we used the HTML5 History API for real urls in an AJAX site and SVG to make data visualizations reveal themselves through scrolling. We take advantage of APIs to present video and sharing options people are already familiar with, but customized in a way to work seamlessly within the brand experience.

The Results

There’s a lot of minivan reviews and tests out there, but we think there’s even more to learn from real minivan owners in the real world. So we exposed a simple test, based on one simple question: After living with your minivan, would you buy it again? More Town & Country Owners answered, “Yes” than the owners than the owners of any other minivan. We call it the Test of Ownership. And our goal was to bring that test to life by creating a clean, easy to use site that highlights stories of real minivan owners, their behavioral data and unique minivan features that appeal to a wide demographic.
