Hybrids are quickly becoming a much bigger part of the car industry because they offer the best compromise between gas and electric vehicles. The combination of both technologies will give you a lot of benefits rather than complications. Despite these improvements, there has not been a hybrid minivan until now. The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is the industry’s first hybrid minivan, and can be your solution for eco-friendlier performance while getting all of the perks of a minivan.
Range and Performance
Many drivers think that they have to compromise on range and performance when choosing a hybrid. However, this is no longer true. The technology has advanced so much that many hybrids can match or exceed the range of gas-powered vehicles. The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid slightly exceeds the average 500-mile range of most vehicles. It gets up to 488 miles per tank of gas. Plus, you get an extra 38 miles per charge with the electric drive system.
Having a 38-mile range can be very useful for daily driving. Most people drive less than that to get to work and back and to run errands throughout the day. It is entirely possible that you can do your entire day’s driving just on the battery charge. That means far fewer trips to the gas station and lower fuel costs.
Save on More Than Fuel
While the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid can save you money on fuel costs, there are other ways it can save you money. Local and state governments are committed to protecting the environment and are looking for incentives to reduce carbon emissions. There is a federal tax credit of up to $7,500 that you can get for driving hybrid and electric vehicles. Depending on what state you live in, you may also be able to qualify for local and state incentives, too. More states are looking at offering such tax credits, which can help get more drivers into less polluting vehicles like the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid.
In-Demand Safety Technology
Although much of the attention on the Chrysler Pacifica hybrid is focused on its hybrid technology, it also has the most in-demand safety technology. Chrysler put a lot of time and research into developing driver-assist systems that can make driving much safer. These include the 360° Surround View Camera, which lets you see a full range around your car on the touchscreen for the infotainment system. That way, you won’t have any blind spots, and you are far less likely to get in an accident.
With this safety package, you also get the Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking system and the LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist. These systems actively help you avoid collisions, which can make driving much safer no matter where you are.
