2008 Chrysler Pacifica

2008 Chrysler Pacifica Overview

Introduction

The Pacifica is Chrysler's 'sports tourer', a crossover vehicle that melds elements of the more traditional SUV, passenger car and minivan. It offers sleek styling, a versatile interior and a high level of standard equipment and safety features.

The Pacifica is available in three trim levels: LX, Touring and Limited. Each trim level is offered in either a front- or all-wheel drive configuration, with seating for six people in Touring and Limited versions. The front-wheel drive LX comes with a 200 hp 3.8-liter V6 engine, mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission; all other trims are equipped with a 253 hp 4.0-liter V6, coupled with a 6-speed automatic. Standard safety features on all Pacificas include: 4-wheel antilock disc brakes with Brake Assist, electronic stability control with traction control, side curtain airbags for all rows and a tire pressure monitoring system.

For 2008, the Chrysler Pacifica gets minor changes: base trims are rebadged 'LX', and Touring trims get additional standard features, including automatic headlamps, foglights and SIRIUS satellite radio.
