Chrysler Pacifica Prices, Reviews & Research!

The Pacifica is intermediate in height making it easier to enter and exit the vehicle. An all wheel drive model that seats six with a disappearing third seat for carrying cargo will be first to come off the production line. The Pacifica has a load leveling rear suspension, four-wheel antilock brakes, power adjusted pedals with memory and is powered by a 250 horsepower (250 lb-ft of torque) version of the Chrysler 300M 3.5 V6, connected to an AutoStick four-speed automatic.

We see that there has been no amenity excluded from our Chrysler Pacifica review's long list of standard features:

In addition to the all-wheel drive model, Chrysler Pacifica will also have a front-wheel drive model with traction control. Pacifica is fairly unique in that it shares very few common parts aside from the motor with other Chrysler or Mercedes models. A good convenience feature is the height of the Pacifica, set so you don't have to step up or climb down into the vehicle. From the positioning of the navigation system to the wood accents on doors and dashboard, the interior of the Chrysler Pacifica combines elegance and practicality.

Some nice ergonomic touches within the passenger area show some forethought with easy to locate seat controls on the door, rear controls for ventilation and audio functions, and a rear hatch that moves up and down under power. The appearance of the interior is conservative and understated. Passenger seats are easily entered and exited while the third seat folds flat for excellent cargo storage.

Safety is an important area we include in our Chrysler Pacifica review. Three-row side curtain air bags deploy to provide full-side window protection not common in midsize vehicles in this price range. Handling and stability are addressed in the Chrysler Pacifica with a wide track, while steering and ride are adjusted to optimally maintain sports car like cornering and handling. Seat belts, air bags that deploy at various levels and sensors complete the Chrysler Pacifica safety picture. New in the Pacifica, is the Chrysler inflatable knee blocker which helps reduce lower leg injuries in a crash.

After preparing our Chrysler Pacifica review and photo, we recognized that this is no ordinary vehicle. The Pacifica is an honest effort to design a safe, sporty, and practical vehicle that is luxurious yet utilitarian. When you view our Chrysler Pacifica photo, you can appreciate the fabulous styling and attention to detail. Next step would be for you to test drive a new Chrysler Pacifica to see if it is the new car of your dreams.
