The award-winning, innovative, and industry standard-setting Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid has earned yet another accolade. This time, the nod comes from the experts at Autotrader, who named the family-friendly and well-equipped minivan to its list of the 12 Best Electric Vehicles. The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is the first and only electrified minivan to secure a spot in the Autotrader’s rankings.

“This is our first annual list of the best EVs and we expect the cars on this list to change dramatically over the years,” said Brian Moody, executive editor at Autotrader. “That being said, the Chrysler Pacifica is really in a league of its own – there simply aren’t any other minivans that offer the plug-in flexibility of the Pacifica Hybrid. Around town, the Pacifica Hybrid can run on just electricity, making it both quick and quiet. However, the hybrid powertrain means it’s good for long trips too – all the while providing the comfort of a luxurious minivan.”
Drivers can expect to be behind the wheel of the Pacifica Hybrid as the popular minivan earns a total range of 500 miles (32 miles all-electric range and 82 MPGe).
According to FCA, “The Pacifica Hybrid, ranked among the top five best-selling PHEVs in the industry, is equipped with a regenerative braking system that redirects kinetic energy used to stop the brakes into energy that is used to charge the vehicle’s battery.”
