Crossovers and SUVs might be dominating the market, but Chrysler isn’t ready to give up on the minivan just yet.

At the 2016 Detroit Auto Show, the American automaker will usher in a new generation for its minivan model, whether that’s continuing with the Chrysler Town & Country or turning its attention to a new nameplate. The press conference will start on January 11 at 4:30 AM Pacific / 7:30 AM Eastern, but don’t worry if you can’t watch it live – you can replay the event below.

Spy photographers have caught the next-generation minivan model testing, and although it has been heavily camouflaged, it appears the new minivan will get its styling cues from the 700C concept that debuted in 2012.
