For four decades, Chrysler has been at the forefront of the minivan segment, a segment they pioneered. The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica and 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid continue this legacy of innovation, offering families unparalleled versatility, technology, and comfort. As the first minivan to offer both gasoline and hybrid powertrains, and still the only one with a plug-in hybrid option, the Chrysler Pacifica remains a leader in its class. The Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid also stands out as the sole minivan currently eligible for a $7,500 federal tax credit, making it an even more attractive option for eco-conscious families. From the luxurious Pinnacle model boasting the most upscale interior in its segment to the practical Stow ‘n Go seating and available all-wheel-drive (AWD), the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica is designed to meet the diverse needs of modern families.
What’s New in the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica?
Chrysler has refined the 2024 Pacifica lineup with a focus on enhanced luxury and style, alongside technological upgrades that further solidify its position as a top choice for families. Here are the key updates for the new model year:
Refreshed Pinnacle Model Interior
The premium Pinnacle trim of the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica elevates its interior ambiance with an exclusive new sepia interior color scheme. This sophisticated update includes sepia-quilted Nappa leather seats adorned with Light Diesel stitching and Sydney Gray piping, creating an even more luxurious and inviting cabin space.
New Exterior Color Options
Drivers can now personalize their 2024 Chrysler Pacifica with two new available exterior colors: Red Hot and Baltic Gray. These fresh color choices add to the Pacifica’s already stylish exterior, with the Baltic Gray option also available with the adventurous Road Tripper Package.
Streamlined Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid Models
For the 2024 model year, the Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid will be available in two distinct models: the Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid Select and the Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid Pinnacle. This streamlined approach simplifies the selection process for customers interested in the hybrid minivan, ensuring there’s a model to meet various needs and preferences.
Expanded Package Availability for Plug-In Hybrid Select
Owners of the 2024 Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid Select can now further customize their vehicle with optional S Appearance, Premium S Appearance, and Road Tripper Packages. This expands the styling and feature options for the hybrid model, allowing for greater personalization.
Emergency Vehicle Alert System (EVAS)
Enhancing safety and awareness, the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica integrates the Emergency Vehicle Alert System (EVAS) into its Uconnect connected-vehicle platform. This feature provides timely in-vehicle notifications on both the cluster and touchscreen displays, alerting drivers to nearby active fire trucks, ambulances, or other roadway hazards, contributing to safer driving conditions.
2024 Chrysler Pacifica Highlights: Continuing to Lead the Minivan Pack
Beyond the new features, the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica continues to offer a range of segment-leading highlights that families have come to appreciate.
Road Tripper Package: The Ultimate Family Adventure Vehicle
The popular Road Tripper Package returns for the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica, enhancing its appeal as the best road trip minivan in its class. This package gives the Pacifica a unique exterior profile with Luster Gray Road Tripper graphics outlined in Brilliant Orange on the front doors. It also includes distinctive 20-inch Luster Gray wheels (18-inch on the Plug-In Hybrid) with Brilliant Orange Chrysler wing badge logo center caps. Semi-gloss Granite Crystal Chrysler wing badges with black center inserts further distinguish the Road Tripper. Available on Touring L and Plug-In Hybrid Select models, and in Baltic Gray, Brilliant Black, and Bright White, the Road Tripper Package adds a touch of adventure-ready style to the Pacifica.
Amazon Fire TV Integration: Entertainment on the Go
The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica keeps everyone entertained with available Amazon Fire TV integration. This system seamlessly integrates into the Uconnect 5 and Uconnect Theater system, providing access to favorite shows, movies, streaming apps, and even unique vehicle features via Alexa. Parents can manage content, and passengers can enjoy high-definition viewing in the rear seats. When parked, even the driver can access Amazon Fire TV on the front Uconnect 5 screen. The included Amazon Fire TV remote with Alexa push-to-talk simplifies navigation and control.
Available All-Wheel Drive (AWD): Confidence in All Conditions
For families needing extra confidence in various weather conditions, the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica offers available all-wheel drive on gas-powered Touring L, Limited, and Pinnacle models. Notably, the Chrysler Pacifica remains America’s only minivan to offer AWD with class-exclusive Stow ‘n Go seating. The system engages seamlessly at any speed, automatically transferring torque to wheels with more traction when needed, enhancing handling in diverse conditions like snow or unpaved roads. When AWD isn’t required, the system disengages to improve fuel efficiency, a class-exclusive feature in the minivan segment. Combined with a best-in-class towing capacity of 3,600 lbs., the AWD Pacifica is a truly capable minivan.
Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid: Efficiency Without Compromise
The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid continues to lead as the first and only plug-in hybrid minivan, offering over 80 MPGe, an all-electric range exceeding 30 miles, and a total range of over 500 miles. It remains the most spacious plug-in hybrid in its class and the only minivan eligible for a $7,500 federal tax credit. Designed for a seamless driving experience, the hybrid system requires no mode switching and features regenerative braking to recapture energy. Drivers can even optimize charging schedules via the Uconnect 5 system to take advantage of off-peak electricity rates. The Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid not only reduces emissions, emitting only 119 grams per mile of tailpipe CO2, but also offers potential fuel cost savings of around $3,250 over five years compared to the average new vehicle.
Unmatched Safety and Security Features
The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica boasts the most standard safety features in its segment, including standard LED lighting and Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking (PAEB). With up to 98 standard safety features and 117 available safety and security features in total, the Pacifica prioritizes family safety. The Pinnacle model further enhances safety with 101 standard safety features, including a 360-degree Surround View camera and ParkSense park assist. Standard LED headlamps, daytime running lamps, fog lamps, and taillamps provide exceptional visibility.
Bold and Athletic Design
The Chrysler Pacifica’s exterior design is both bold and athletic, featuring a “heroic” 3D diamond-styled grille, aggressively designed LED headlamps with DRLs, and deeply sculpted LED fog lamp bezels. The LED taillamps stretch across the rear, creating a modern and cohesive look. The overall design language conveys a strong and stylish presence on the road.
Innovative Interior Consoles
Inside, the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica offers a choice of two integrated front center consoles: the Ultra console (Pinnacle model) and the Premium console (Limited gas/Plug-In Hybrid Select models). The Pinnacle Ultra console is the most functional in its class, featuring dual-level storage with a pass-through area large enough for a purse or laptop. It offers best-in-class total storage and a comfortable armrest. The Premium console, while more compact to accommodate Stow ‘n Go seating, still provides dual-level storage and a tamboured door for center storage.
S Appearance Package: Sporty and Stylish
The popular S Appearance Package continues to be a favorite, chosen by one in three Pacifica buyers. This package adds Anodized Ink finishes on grille surrounds and badging, and “Foreshadow” finish wheels, enhancing the Pacifica’s sporty aesthetic. A total of 12 wheel designs and finishes are available across the Pacifica lineup, allowing for further customization.
Advanced Technology with Uconnect 5
As the most technologically advanced minivan in its class, the 2024 Chrysler Pacifica features the Uconnect 5 system with a standard 10.1-inch high-definition touchscreen. This system is faster, more intuitive, and offers wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, simultaneous dual-phone connectivity, and Alexa integration. TomTom navigation, over-the-air updates, and SiriusXM with 360L further enhance the connected experience. For Plug-In Hybrid models, enhanced Hybrid Electric Pages and Smartphone Control 2.0 provide advanced charging schedule management.
FamCAM Interior Camera: Keep an Eye on Everyone
The available FamCAM interior camera provides a best-in-class high-definition view of rear-seat passengers, including rear-facing child seats. Segment-exclusive features like split-view display and zoom-to-seat functionality make it easier than ever to monitor the whole family.
Abundant USB Ports and Wireless Charging
The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica is designed for modern device-heavy families, offering up to 12 USB ports, including USB Type-C ports for faster charging. Wireless charging is also available in models with integrated consoles.
Premium Audio Options
Audiophiles will appreciate the available Harman Kardon Premium Audio Group, which includes a 19-speaker system with a 10-inch subwoofer (20-speaker system in Plug-In Hybrid).
Quieter Cabin and Cleaner Air
