Start 2022 in the New Chrysler Pacifica

A new year means manufacturers will soon be unveiling their various makes and models for 2022. For those who are currently shopping for a new vehicle, this time of year can seem a bit much. A constant bombardment of advertising and journalistic reviews seem to arrive daily, which either extol or condemn the virtues and faults of the new cars and trucks that will be on the market for the upcoming year.


As one of the most recognized brands in the United States, Chrysler has long upheld a standard of quality and service. While the SUV has usurped the title of ‘ideal family vehicle’ from both the station wagon and minivan, the latter has emerged from the shadows in an attempt to reclaim its crown. While this seems like a tall order, considering the current popularity of the SUV, the Chrysler Pacifica takes the minivan in a bold new direction.

Passenger Space with Performance

It needs to be said that isn’t your mother’s minivan. No, Chrysler makes that apparent from the word ‘go.’ While it still has the offerings that a family vehicle would carry, such as seating for seven and an available 140 cubic feet of storage, it’s got some surprises underneath the hood that will certainly drop a few jaws.

The Pacifica comes equipped with a 3.6L V8 that packs well over 280 ponies of horsepower. That’s more than some pickups on the road, and for moms who enjoy putting the metal to the metal, the Pacifica easily travels from 0-60 MPH in less than 8 seconds. Only sports cars have faster speeds.

MPG for a Modern Family

Storage and speed are always impressive attributes for car shoppers, but for the family-oriented that seek practicality, Chrysler has not forgotten you. The Pacific’s hybrid trim line has a range of 520 miles. Which, on average is the amount that people drive in the span of a week and a half. This means fewer trips to the pump and more pennies in your pocket for a rainy day.

Quality Coverage

Naturally, Chrysler wouldn’t send anyone on the road without a substantial amount of peace of mind. Chrysler’s warranty is extensive, and one of the very best in the industry today.

• Powertrain is covered for a period of 5 years/60,000 miles.
• The Hybrid edition of the Pacifica has its hybrid components covered for an astounding period of 10 years/10,000 miles. That’s coverage you can count on.
