_ If there’s one vehicle that can do it all, the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica can make a case for being it.” _ – Kelley Blue Book
It doesn’t come as a surprise that the Chrysler Pacifica is on Kelley Blue Book’s list of _ “ _ 12 Best Family Cars.” The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica has been a huge hit since it was introduced last year, and its popularity continues to grow with the recent release of the hybrid option. The Chrysler Pacifica changed the minivan game.
Reasons why the Chrysler Pacifica is the best family car:
– Both of the Pacifica’s powertrain options are above and beyond what consumers expect for a minivan. The 3.6-liter engine option is paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission that make the vehicle powerful yet fuel efficient, especially when considering the vehicle is a minivan. The V6 engine is able to produce 287 horsepower, 262 lb-ft of torque, and gets 19 city mpg and an impressive 28 highway mpg.
– The other powertrain option is available on the Pacifica Hybrid. This engine is a modified 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine paired with a 16 kWh 360 V lithium-ion battery and dual electric motors. This engine and battery combination helps the vehicle achieve a city/highway combined average of 84 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent), and a total range of 570 miles. When only powered by a battery, the vehicle can travel up to 33 miles.
– The impressive engine options aren’t the only qualities that makes the Pacifica and the Pacifica Hybrid excellent. The Pacifica models both have stylish exterior and luxurious interior features and they certainly help to make it one of the best family cars in 2017. The Pacifica’s exterior is sleek and modern and looks much more sophisticated than other minivans on the market.
– Sitting in the Pacifica almost feels like sitting in a cockpit because of how smooth it looks and how many advanced features there are. The Pacifica comes standard with cloth seating but leather is also available.
– Finally, the Pacifica comes with lots of standard technology and upgraded options . Features like SiriusXM, UConnect, and a media hub with AUX and USB inputs all come standard. Optional features like a entertainment system in the back with Bluray DVD players and Bluetooth technology, wireless headphones and upgraded speakers are available as well.
