Five Innovative Features of the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid

1. PHEV Powertrain

The entry-level Select model of 2024 Chrysler Pacifica PHEV is outfitted with a fantastic 3.6-liter V6 PHEV powertrain that generates a net system power of 260 horsepower. This eco-friendly PHEV is paired with a front-wheel-drive drivetrain that’s ideal for suburban travel and an effortless CVT transmission. The combined EPA-estimated fuel economy for the Select trim is 82 MPGe and has an EPA-estimated all-electric range of 32 miles.

Flexible charging options are a key feature for this PHEV powertrain. If you upgrade to the Level 2 240-volt charger, this PHEV minivan can be fully recharged in roughly two hours. 

2. Uconnect 5

This minivan comes with an impressive infotainment center with a 10.1-inch touchscreen. The Uconnect 5 system works with voice command software via Siri Eyes Free so you can adjust your audio playback or access directions from the integrated navigation system. This infotainment system supports wireless Bluetooth connectivity and has a six-speaker audio system with speed-sensitive volume that lowers the audio volume in low-speed traffic. 

3. Flexible Seating

The base Pacifica model has flexible seating features with 60/40 split-folding third-row seats and second-row captain’s seats that tilt and slide forward to give passengers fast access to the third row. The front-row seats are also exceptionally comfortable with an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support. This model has a maximum seating capacity for seven passengers.

4. ParkSense 

This minivan comes with Chrysler’s signature ParkSense software. The parking sensors on the vehicle will provide a warning if objects get too close to the rear bumper when you are backing into a parking space. These parking sensors are paired with an automatic emergency braking feature that will automatically engage the brakes if the minivan detects a potential collision when the vehicle is in reverse. 

5. Hybrid Electric App

You have the power to customize the performance and charging convenience of your minivan when you download the Hybrid Electric App. With this app, you can check the available range on the Pacifica PHEV, set your preferred charge schedule and charging capacity, get charging status updates, and even find charging stations when you’re on the go.  Overall, the Pacifica PHEV builds on the fantastic features of the gas-powered Pacifica by introducing more technology and eco-friendly mechanics.
