Chrysler Pacifica, the most awarded minivan over the last seven
years with more than 175 honors and industry accolades, is adding a
significant recognition to the Chrysler brand's list of
achievements. U.S. News & World Report today unveiled the 2024
Best Cars for Families awards, recognizing the 2024 Chrysler
Pacifica as the Best Minivan for Families.
"The 2024 Best Cars for Families winners offer a number of
safety features and a comfortable ride for all passengers, making
them ideal for daily commutes or family adventures," said
Liz Opsitnik, executive editor, U.S. News.
Chrysler Pacifica earned the vehicle's first award from U.S
News in the Best Minivan for Families category on the strength of
family-friendly features, including the most standard safety
features in its segment, available all-wheel-drive (AWD) capability
paired with Pacifica's class-exclusive Stow 'n Go seating and an
available FamCAM interior camera, which offers a bird's-eye view of
rear-facing child-seat occupants. Pacifica was also first with
available Amazon Fire TV integrated into the Uconnect Theater
System.
The Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid, the first hybrid
minivan, delivers 82 miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe), an
all-electric range of 32 miles and a total range of 520 miles. The
Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid can also help charge the battery when
braking or stopping using the built-in regenerative braking
technology. A Max Regeneration mode allows for even greater
regenerative braking force to maximize efficiency and is noted via
a cluster messaging icon to keep drivers aware of the increased
system regeneration. Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid continues to represent
the evolution of the Chrysler portfolio as the brand transitions to
an all-new electrified future, as part of the Stellantis Dare
Forward 2030 strategic plan to lead the way the world moves by
delivering innovative, clean, safe and affordable mobility
solutions.
The 2024 Best Cars for Families award criteria looks at each
vehicle's overall rating from the U.S. News Best Car Rankings
to determine quality, incorporating elements like safety data,
predicted reliability ratings, passenger and cargo space and the
consensus opinion of the automotive press. The award methodology
also considers the availability of tech features such as in-car
wireless internet, teen driver controls, automatic emergency
braking, rear cross-traffic alert and hands-free cargo doors. The
winners were selected based on the highest composite score in each
of the nine vehicle categories.
