The 2024 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid Pinnacle blends gas and electric power. I drove it for a week to see if it could change my mind about minivans.

Something is off with your charging numbers. I charge my Pacifica Hybrid from empty to full every night and it takes about 12 hours on a standard 110 volt outlet. It takes about 2½ hours on our inexpensive level 2 charger. I may be confusing this with another car, but I think there's a setting in the infotainment menus that lets you choose between two different charging rates.

Who cares that it's the only Chrysler? If you buy one, that's the one you want.

We have an earlier year Pacifica PHEV, and at ~70k miles of driving, I can say it's been a truly wonderful car.

With our L2 charger, it'll charge at a bit over 6 kW. That's about two hours to fully charge the battery.

It's very comfortable and has TONS of space. We're a family of four and have two big dogs. The Pacifica swallows all of us, our stuff, and still is spacious.

In all our years of ownership, we've run into our first issue: one of the front parking sensors is on the blink. Other than that, it's been trouble free.

Somthing is wrong here. With a 15 amp plug it should take no more than 12 hours to go from 0-100% on the included lv1 charger. You must have been using a 10 amp plug or it was overheating or somthing.
