Chrysler Pacifica Model Overview

Daimler Chrysler was a late bloomer in the exploding crossover SUV market. The American automaker introduced the new Pacifica for 2004, when many competitors were already entering a second generation of production. The Chrysler company has experienced great success pioneering new designs for minivans, but the Pacifica represents the company's first attempt at any type of SUV. Chrysler's sister Dodge has producing the unrelated truck-based Durango since 1998.
Yet, the Pacifica is neither truck-based or car-based. It shares a platform with Dodge and Chrysler minivans. It stands low, allowing for easy entry and exit, and its comparatively stretched wheelbase offers some additional interior room verses other crossover SUVs. Unfortunately, the Chrysler badge is historically a caveat for reliability and build quality issues, but the Pacifica is much improved since is 2004 release.
A new 4.0 liter V-6 engine is now available of five of the six 2007 models, upping horsepower from to 200 to 255. The Pacifica is available in three trim levels: base Touring, and Limited.
