2022 Chrysler Pacifica Review Hurricane WV

Chrysler Pacifica Black Snipped

You’re the king of the morning carpool, and your minivan is nothing short of your castle. But is your current castle starting to falter at its foundation? Maybe it’s time you upgraded. Nothing says upgrade like the 2022 Chrysler Pacifica.

If you’re looking to test drive this palace of a minivan, then visit the team at Walker Chrysler Dodge Jeep (CDJR). All our friends in the Hurricane, Huntington, and Charleston, WV, areas can come see us to get behind the wheel of the Pacifica. In the meantime, read on to learn the highlights of this fantastic minivan.

Engine Performance

When you start looking for a new minivan, you need to make sure it has at least the amount of power your current one does. The 2022 Chrysler Pacifica has a single engine: a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 motor. This powertrain has the following specifications:

287 horsepower
262 lb-ft of torque
EPA-estimated 19 city/ 28 highway MPG
Maximum towing capacity of 3,600 pounds

What this means for you is that you can bring along a couple jet skis or snowmobiles for some adventures in the great outdoors.

In addition to its impressive fuel economy, the powertrain is equipped with Engine Stop/Start technology. This feature can help extend fuel economy by turning off the engine when you’re idling at a full stop—like in stop-and-go traffic. When you put your foot back on the accelerator, the engine turns back on.

Interior Amenities

No matter what the outside temperature, you’ll stay comfortable inside the 2022 Chrysler Pacifica with standard 3-zone automatic climate control. With this feature, you’ll be able to set three different zones—driver, front-seat passenger, and rear seats—to different temperatures, so there’s no more arguing over it being too hot or cold.

But what about avoiding the dreaded “Are we there yet?” from the back seats? Fortunately, you’ll have the standard Uconnect 5 system, which includes the following features:

10.1-inch touchscreen display
Bluetooth® hands-free phone and audio
Apple CarPlay®
Android Auto™

When it comes to listening to your favorite playlists or podcasts, you’ll have several options for your sound system. The standard is a 6-speaker system, but you can upgrade to an available 13-speaker Alpine® system with the Uconnect Theater Family Group package. A final option is the Harmon Kardon® 19-speaker system, but no matter which one you choose, you’re sure to never miss a word.

Safety Features

But the most important features are the ones that help you arrive at your destination safely. The 2022 Chrysler Pacifica has several standard safety and driver-assistance features designed to make your drive as easy as it is safe. Standard features on the Pacifica include:

Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking
ParkSense® Rear Park Assist
LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist
Blind Spot Monitoring System with Rear Cross Path Detection

In addition to these features, you’ll also have standard Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go. This feature works with two parameters: maintaining a set speed and a set following distance between you and the car ahead. Once both are set, let your minivan take care of staying with the flow of traffic for you—even coming to a complete stop and then getting back up to speed.
