Chrysler Just Made Minivans Cool with the 2017 Pacifica

ELIZABETH CITY, N.C. – Chrysler just made minivans cool with the 2017 Pacifica, and it’s something you’ve never seen before!

Chrysler invented the minivan, so it’s only proper that Chrysler make the minivan cool again with the 2017 Pacifica. Since the first creation of the minivan, which was 30 years ago, Chrysler has transformed the segment with 78 innovations across the first five minivan generations. With the all-new Chrysler Pacifica, there are 37 new implementations––all firsts for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) U.S.––totaling 115 innovations made to the minivan.

The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica offers bold styling, class-leading ride and handling, and unmatched fuel economy technology, including the Pacifica Hybrid option that delivers up to 80MPGe. This vehicle is exactly what families need, providing comfort, convenience, and technology.

This minivan was completely re-engineered from the tires on up. It’s build like a vault so interior wind and road noise are kept to a minimum. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is standard on every model of the Pacifica to make long car rides, or just your daily commute, more comfortable. The Pacifica is also engineered to have the largest interior volume ever with creative storage areas and available eight-passenger seating.

There are two powertrains available for the Pacifica. First is the hybrid, which will deliver 30 miles solely from electric power using a 16kWh lithium-ion battery. The second powertrain is the gasoline model, which has the award-winning 3.6L Pentastar V-6 engine producing 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque.

You're getting the best in safety and security technologies with the 2017 Pacifica, offering over 100 standard and available features. Some of these features include:

• Surround View Camera (360-degree view of vehicle & surroundings)
• ParkSense Parallel / Perpendicular Par Assist
• Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Hold
• Forward Collision Warning-Plus
• LaneSense Lane Departure Warning-Plus
• Blind-Spot Monitoring
• Rear Backup Camera
• Electric Stability Control 

Last, but not least, is technology. This minivan is so packed full of technology that it’s actually the most equipped vehicle of its kind. Drivers will love the Uconnect 8.4 system with an 8.4-inch touchscreen that offers navigation, integrated voice command, and Uconnect Access, which keeps them connected with helpful information like gas prices and nearby movie listings. Passengers will love the Uconnect Theater system that lets them watch movies, play built-in games, connect personal devices to surf the Internet, and stream content on the 10in touch screens.

Other technology features include:

• Keyless Enter ‘n Go
• Remote Start
