Why is the Chrysler Pacifica the best Family Vehicle?

Check out our Pacifica Inventory!

The Chrysler Pacifica is the quintessential minivan and the perfect choice for those with a large family! Last year, the Pacifica stood out further thanks to a complete redesign that included updated styling, more technology, and several standard driver aids. Now you can get things like a rear-seat entertainment system with Amazon Fire TV for Auto that will keep your kids entertained as you go on those long trips. Occupants in the front seat can also enjoy content via streaming or downloading even while the vehicle is in park. All of this goes nicely with a large amount of space and the PHEV powertrain to make the Pacifica the most well-rounded minivan on the market. Want to know more about the Pacifica?

Technology for the Pacifica

One thing the Pacifica has over every other minivan out on the market is an abundance of technology. Depending on the trim level, you will be treated to things like LED exterior lighting, a power liftgate, power-sliding side doors, three-zone climate control, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and a 10.1-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. You will also get a six-speaker audio system on the base trim level. If you go with the Touring L, you will get even more advanced technology, such as driver's seat memory settings, a surround-view camera system, and parking sensors with automatic braking. The top two trims, the Limited and the Pinnacle round out this fantastic treat of tech with items such as a 13-speaker audio system, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, power-folding mirrors, a navigation system, integrated vacuum cleaner, and a wireless charging pad. If you go with the Pinnacle, you can get a rear-seat entertainment system that will keep your kids entertained and an internal camera system that will allow the driver to check on the rear occupants.

In addition, the Forward Collision Mitigation system will warn you of an impending collision and apply the brakes if you fail to do so. But wait, there is more!

Cabin Space

We can't talk about the Chrysler Pacifica without talking about the massive cabin space it has! After all, minivans are all about efficiency and storage space. The Pacifica comes with a deep storage well located right behind the third row, and if you need more space and have fewer passengers, the Chrysler has a handy manual-folding operation to give you a lot more space. The second-row versatility is where the Pacifica continues to shine, as you can fold up the Stow n' Go seats into the floor without too much effort. There are also pockets, cupholders, and cubbies throughout the cabin so you can store all of your loose items. In addition, the car seat accommodation for the Pacifica is excellent, and the LATCH anchors can be easily accessed. Finally, when properly equipped, the Pacifica can haul up to 3,600 pounds, which is outstanding for the class.

Power Options for the Pacifica

If you want a minivan with a lot of pickup, we highly recommend checking out the Pacifica, as it has two remarkable engine options! The standard engine is a 3.6-liter V6 which generates an incredible 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque and pairs with a nine-speed automatic, which will provide you with a smooth ride as you travel far and wide. In addition, a plug-in hybrid version of the Pacifica takes the V6 engine and adds a few hybrid elements, such as a battery pack and two electric motors, to generate 260 horsepower and 32 miles of all-electric range. When you combine the full battery charge will a full tank of gas, you get an impressive 520 miles of all-electric range.
