Why the Pacifica Hybrid took home the award
The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid needed to undergo testing and evaluations in order to make PARENTS magazine’s list of the 2020 Best Family Cars. An automotive expert test drove the minivan and examined its steering, braking, and technology features. In addition, a certified child passenger safety technician installed different child seats in the cabin.
After performing well in the testing, the Pacifica Hybrid earned the title of “Best Eco Pick” for being the first-ever hybrid minivan and the only one of its kind on the market today. The minivan gets an EPA-estimated 82 MPGe in electric-only mode, while also having an all-electric range of 32 miles and a total driving range of 520 miles.

The 2020 Pacifica Hybrid comes with numerous safety technologies and a kid-friendly cabin that can fit child seats in its second and third row. Available Uconnect Theater allows your children to watch their favorite movies and play games on two 10-inch touch screens.
The minivan is also spacious with room for up to seven passengers and Stow ‘n Go seats that can fold into the floor so you can fit more cargo into the cabin. When loading luggage and sports gear inside the minivan, you can also take advantage of the available hands-free power liftgate and sliding doors.
