The 2023 Chrysler Pacifica was designed with busy families in mind. This minivan has great features like park assist, plenty of USB ports, Amazon Alexa capabilities, and an available WiFi hotspot.
1. Park Assist
Chrysler has added their Park Sense Rear Park Assist technology as standard software on the Pacifica. This software provides drivers with information about the distance between the vehicle and objects in the way. This information is given as both visual and audible cues.
While the rear park assist is standard, there is also a front park assist available. This software works the same way only in the front of the vehicle.
2. Safety Assist Features
There are plenty of safety-assist features to get excited about in the Pacifica. Some of the standard features include adaptive cruise control and lane departure warnings. Additionally, drivers will have access to a pedestrian automatic emergency braking system. There is also a full-speed forward collision warning with active braking technology.
3. WiFi Hotspot
There is an available 4G LTE wifi hotspot feature. This makes it easy for families to stay connected on the road. An ongoing subscription to this service with unlimited data costs $20 a month.
4. Amazon Alexa
Chrysler has added Amazon Alexa to the family minivan. This feature allows drivers to use voice commands to stream music, check in with their calendars, and check the weather. Amazon Alexa has the ability to start the vehicle for the driver or change the climate control settings. It can also be used to send destinations to the minivan’s navigation system.
5. Touchscreens
The standard touchscreen in the 2023 Pacifica is a 10.1-inch system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Families that want a minivan stacked with infotainment features will want to add the rear-seat entertainment system with touchscreens.
6. Plenty of USB Ports
If your family is regularly fighting over charging ports, the Pacifica has your back. There is an option to add more USB ports for a total of 12 locations throughout the van.
7. FamCAM
FamCAM is an available feature that allows the driver to more easily keep an eye on their passengers. This feature will display a split-screen on the front touchscreen display. The display can be customized to show a child in a rear-facing car seat.
8. An Available Plug-In Hybrid
The plug-in hybrid Touring L has a 3.6-liter V6 engine with a hybrid system. It has a travel range of 32 all-electric miles. If you’d like to make fewer stops at the gas station, the PHEV is your best option. This gives the minivan a combined MPGe of 82 miles.
