2023 brings many exciting changes for the Chrysler lineup, and the Pacifica is no exception. This ultimate family minivan has many features and technology to set it apart from the competition. The Pacifica is a great choice whether you are looking for a new vehicle or want to upgrade your current one! Let's take a look at everything the Pacifica has to offer.
Get to Know the 2023 Chrysler Pacifica
Engine and PerformanceÂ
The Pacifica has plenty of power with its 287-hp, 3.6 -liter engine paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission. The acceleration is peppy for those driving around town like a soccer mom or taking a cruise on a weekend afternoon.
The Pacifica also has a hybrid option. Its 3.6-liter, V-6 is backed by two electric motors and a 16.0-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. It's less horsepower than the standard engine but still offers plenty of power.

InfotainmentÂ
The technology package highlight is the Chrysler U Connect 5 system with a large 10.1-inch touchscreen display. The Pacifica offers some of the most advanced technological packages for any minivan on the market.Â
The reconfigurable home screen has Amazon and Alexa integration. You'll always be connected with wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and a Wi-Fi hotspot. You can also include an optional rear seat infotainment package with dual monitors on to keep the kids entertained. Amazon TV and other streaming services will have your children chomping at the bit for a ride. There are also an incredible 12 USB charging ports throughout the cabin. The C-type is faster charging as well.

Safety
There is no shortage of safety options available on the 2023 Chrysler Pacifica. There are more than 100 standard and available safety and security features, including Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking, Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning, and Lane Departure Warnings. Other standard options include blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alerts, and adaptive cruise control. The Pacific offers comprehensive safety to keep you and your family safe on the road.Â
Exterior
The 2023 Pacifica has a sharp and sleek exterior to rival any other minivan on the market. The Pacifica is designed to impress by replacing the traditional blockier SUV shape with a swoop design. The Pacifica has four trims: the Touring, L, Limited, and Pinnacle. Each trim has power-operated sliding doors. Busy parents will also love the standard power liftgate when their hands are full of groceries or kids' sports equipment. You'll also find a standard dual-pane panoramic sunroof on the two higher times to give the cabin an open and airy feel. The wheels range in size from 17 to 20 inches depending on the trim.Â

Bold Interior
All trims of the Pacifica come standard with seating for seven. However, the Pacifica Touring L can seat up to eight when optioned with a second-row bench seat. Even the lowest Pacifica trim has a feeling of opulence. Standard features include heated front seats, tri-zone climate control, and a large touchscreen display. The upholstery options include premium cloth at the base trim to leatherette in the Touring and premium Nappa Leather in higher trims. One of the greatest benefits of the Pacifica is the Stow 'n Go seats, where you can fold the rear seats into the floor. The extra storage space creates a lot of versatility for hauling other things besides passengers. The cabin has ample seating with plenty of legroom in the third seat.Â

Driving in the Pacifica
Driving the 2023 Chrysler Pacifica destroys every common cliche about minivans. It handles corners with precision and has a powerful presence on the road. It has everything you want from a minivan, including comfort, style, and safety. The Pacifica also has an impressive towing capability, up to 3,600 pounds if you want to tow a small trailer. Another great reason to opt for the Pacifica instead of an SUV is the all-wheel drive availability. It's a great benefit in the cold Ohio winters to get through deep snow and steep driveways.
