2017 All-Stars Contender: Chrysler Pacifica

At North York Chrysler, we know a thing or two about award winning vehicles. So, we were excited that the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica was in the running to be an Automobile Magazine, 2017 AUTOMOBILE All-Stars. While it didn't make the final five, it was pretty amazing to considered, and to be honest, we think it should have been #1 for a whole host of reasons. To understand why our sales and service staff believe so strongly in the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica, we need to take a closer look at what it has to offer.

Performing at High Level

The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica, which is available in five trim levels and eight bold exterior colors, is loaded with an array of performance features. Powering this family van is a standard 3.6-liter V-6 24V VVT engine that delivers 287 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 262 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm. Controlling this impressive engine is a nine-speed FWD automatic transmission that can offer you fuel efficiency up to 8.4 L/100 km highway and 12.4 L/100 km city. To give you and up to eight passengers a great ride, the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica comes with gas-pressurized shock absorbers, Electronic Stability Control, strut front and trailing arm rear suspension with coil springs, and Class-Exclusive 20-inch polished aluminum wheels. If you plan to take the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica on an adventure, you'll also enjoy up to 1,633 kg in towing power depending on the trim level.

Outstanding Safety and Technology

The outstanding standard and optional safety features available on the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica are one of the main reasons it is such a popular family vehicle. The van itself is constructed with side-impact beams and features four-wheel ABS brakes, an eight-airbag system that includes supplemental front seat-mounted side airbags, driver and passenger knee airbags, and multistage front airbags. If you want to take the van's safety up to the next level, you can add a Parkview back-up camera, sliding door-alert warning, and an optional Blind Spot Monitoring System. Like many of the new and pre-owned vehicles available at North York Chrysler, the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica comes with an outstanding five-year or 100,000-kilometre fully transferable Powertrain Limited Warranty with $0 deductible plus 24-hour roadside assistance.

The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica also offers drivers and passengers a number of outstanding entertainment options and connectivity features. You can choose from a series of Uconnect multimedia centres that offer both 5- and 8.4-inch touchscreens, along with premium audio systems powered by Alpine and Harman/Kardon. Another amazing feature is the Uconnect Theatre system that includes a Class-Exclusive dual 10-inch front seatback-mounted touchscreens that can display Blu-ray, DVD, USB or HDMI sourced media. As if all these features didn't make you fall for the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica, we think the interior of this minivan will seal the deal. You can get a class-exclusive Tri-Pane Panoramic Sunroof, eleven different seating fabrics, and up to 243 available seating and cargo configurations.

While it didn't win the award from Automobile Magazine, North York Chrysler believes the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica will easily become your favourite minivan of 2017. To learn more or to schedule a test-drive, please contact North York Chrysler today.
