Chrysler isn’t ready to give up on the minivan segment just yet.
Bowing at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show, the American automaker has reinvented the minivan by introducing the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. That’s right, gone are the Dodge Grand Caravan and the Chrysler Town & Country nameplates and in comes a minivan that boasts 115 innovations for the segment. The American automaker will offer the Pacifica with a plug-in hybrid variant that will get an estimated all-electric range of about 30 miles.
