Nota de prensa de la versión hibrida
First hybrid powertrain in minivan segment“Due to its large footprint and multiple daily trip patterns, the minivan is ideally suited for electrification technology,” said Bob Lee, Vice President and Head of Engine, Powertrain and Electrified Propulsion Systems Engineering, FCA – North America. “The all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica lives up to this promise and then some, with efficiency, power and refinement.”
Launching in second half of 2016, the Pacifica Hybrid is the industry’s first electrified minivan. With an estimated 248 horsepower, the vehicle will deliver an estimated range of 30 miles solely on zero-emissions electric power from a 16-kWh lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery.
In city driving, it is expected to achieve an efficiency rating of 80 miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe), based on U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards.
When the battery’s energy is depleted to a certain threshold, the Pacifica Hybrid becomes a part-time electric vehicle, like a conventional hybrid. Power to the wheels is supplied by the electric drive system or supplemented by a specially adapted new version of the award-winning FCA US Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6 engine.
The battery pack – neatly packaged under the second row floor in the new unique battery case – may be fully recharged in as little as two hours using a 240-volt plug-in system.
The pivotal technology behind the all-new Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is its innovative electrically variable transmission (EVT). Designed and patented by FCA US, the device features two electric motors – both of which are capable of driving the vehicle’s wheels.
Conventional electrification schemes dedicate one motor to serve as a generator and a second motor – usually much larger – to deliver torque to the wheels. But the all-new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid uses a one-way clutch that allows the motor typically used only as a generator to deliver torque to the wheels, depending on driving conditions. The result is increased efficiency, refinement and improved component packaging.
Unique hybrid engineBased on the newly upgraded Pentastar engine architecture, the new hybrid engine features an Atkinson cycle combustion system for improved pumping efficiency without compromising vehicle performance due to its hybrid electric motors working in tandem with the engine when full load performance is required.
Unique “handed” pistons provide a compression ratio increase to 12.5:1 for further thermodynamic efficiency improvement.
The front cover and front accessory drive system was re-engineered due to the elimination of the alternator and power steering pump which is common to most hybrid engines.
Friction reduction improvements, along with ignition and fuel injection improvements found on the upgraded Pentastar V-6 are all part of the specially adapted hybrid Pentastar engine, while 2-step valve lift and cooled EGR have been removed with the addition of Atkinson cycle combustion system.
RechargingDeceleration triggers the motor to turn into a generator, which creates electricity to send back to the battery pack.
The 16-kWh lithium-ion battery pack in the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica is stored efficiently under the second-row floor, keeping the rear cargo area as roomy as ever and preserving the third-row Stow ‘n Go seating and storage.
The exterior charge port is located on the driver’s side fender for quick and easy plug in after exiting the vehicle. On the inside, a charging indicator light is located on the instrument panel so owners can easily monitor the battery charge process
Estéticamente es bonita. Eso si, como la mayoría pienso que el cambio de nombre fue un error… Ante todo, tengo que admitir que me encanta, las minivans no son muy de mi agrado, pero esta luce especialmente juvenil y elegante a mi parecer, me gusta mucho comparado con la caja sin chiste que fue la anterior y el nombre no se si sea adecuado, Pacifica ya fue utilizado y el vehiculo no fue precisamente un exito, así que no se que tan bueno sea usar este nombre, lo que si, es que Chrysler tiene ahora un ejemplar que no tiene nada que envidiar a sus rivales… Yendo en contra de todo el mundo, el concept 700 me gustaba, y la pacifica .. no me parece tan bonita, es mi percepción.

Creo que Voyager se llamó en Europa y ese nombre en EE.UU. era de la extinta Plymouth y luego pasó no me acuerdo en que generación a Chrysler. Dodge entiendo que siempre fue Caravan. El nombre que es de siempre en Chrysler USA es Town & Country que curiosamente en inglés -conceptualmente- es lo más parecido a “Crossover” que hay.
