Safety
Perhaps the most important aspect of a family vehicle is the safety aspects, and there’s no denying that the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica delivers in that regard. The minivan is equipped with a number of functions that are intended to prevent accidents from occurring altogether, explaining why the nameplate was ultimately awarded the 2017 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s Top Safety Pick+ designation.
Inclusions like the Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning Plus system will combine with the Automated Emergency Braking to keep you out of harm’s way, while the Adaptive Cruise Control (with Stop and Go) will allow you to take breaks during any long commute. The LanceSense Lane Departure Warning (with Lane Keep Assist) and the Blind Spot Monitoring System will also be instrumental in preventing devastating crashes on the highway.
The vehicle also includes a number of features that are intended to reduce the chance that you end up in a fender bender. The 360-degree Surround View Camera allows you to monitor your vehicle’s surroundings at all times, with the ParkSense Rear Park Assist System will guide you into any tight parking spot. The vehicle even includes the class-exclusive Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist System, meaning you’ll never have to avoid those tougher spots.

Interior
The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica also provides the major attribute you’d expect from a minivan: interior amenities. Assuming you’re pursuing this vehicle to accommodate your family, you’ll appreciate all of the feature and amenities that are included in the model. The 8.4-inch touchscreen is where the magic happens, as drivers can access a number of notable applications via the system. If customers want, they can opt for the SiriusXM Satellite Radio, as well as the incredible 20-speaker Harman Kardon Premium Surround Sound System. Plus, thanks to the Siri Eyes Free technology, drivers can seamlessly connect their smartphone, allowing them to make calls or listen to their favorite playlists without compromising safety.
Your younger occupants will also appreciate all of the interior amenities that the minivan provides. The Uconnect Theatre includes a pair of 10.1-inch HD touchscreens, providing those rear passengers with hours of entertainment. This system includes a Blu-Ray player, a pair of HDMI inputs (allowing them to connect their gaming system), wireless headphones, and an assortment of downloadable applications. While children generally dread any long journeys, they’ll never want to leave the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica.
The interior amenities don’t end there, as the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica also manages to deliver an incredible amount of interior space. The vehicle automatically delivers an impressive 32.3-cubic-feet of space behind the third row, but drivers can unlock 87.5-cubic-feet of space behind the second row and an unmatched 140.5-cubic-feet of space behind the first row. Plus, thanks to the Stow ’n Go Seating and Storage System, it’s incredibly easy to manipulate your interior to provide you with any advantages you may be seeking.

Performance
We understand if you wouldn’t anticipate a whole lot of muscle emanating from your minivan’s engine. However, it’s important to remember that the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica isn’t your typical minivan. The accompanying 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine pumps out power specs that are often reserved for large SUVs, including an impressive 287 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. This leads to some surprising performance specs, including an admirable 3,600-pound towing capacity.
While these power specs are unexpected, we still wouldn’t say they’re the most impressive part of the vehicle’s award-winning engine. Rather, thanks to the accompanying nine-speed automatic transmission, drivers can anticipate an incredible 28-miles-per-gallon highway fuel efficiency. In other words, you’ll have the opportunity to save a whole lot of money at the gas pump.
