2008 Chrysler Pacifica
Design cues for the 2008 Pacifica lineup include a broad-shouldered, wide stance, emphasized by a protective and distinguished 'face.' A sleek, solid exterior with a crisp, distinctive character line that begins at the front wheel opening and ramps up slowly toward the rear, emphasizes the vehicle's beltline.


2008 Chrysler PacificaChrysler brand-inspired strakes on the hood, 'face of Chrysler' headlamps and a grille with three horizontal bars with the Chrysler 'winged badge' are some of the design attributes that give the 2008 Chrysler Pacifica its recognizable style.

The 2008 Chrysler Pacifica interior follows the same clean, sculptured, elegant flow of the exterior. The vehicle features easy step-across entry and exit and chair-height seats that give passengers a sense of security and a commanding view of the road. Other interior treatments include YES Essentials® stain resistant, odor resistant, anti-static fabric, a two-tone instrument panel and door trim, instrument cluster graphics that include the optional navigation screen and ParkView™ rear back-up camera and five- or six-passenger seating for a stylish, solid and secure ride.

Engineering
'Getting behind the wheel of the 2008 Chrysler Pacifica to experience the torque of the 4.0-liter engine and six-speed transaxle results in a great driving experience,' said Larry Lyons, Vice President – Front-wheel Drive Product Team. 'In addition to the inspired driving performance, standard safety features including all-row side-curtain air bags, Electronic Stability Program, traction control and brake assist offer consumers best-in-class performance and safety.'


The 2008 Chrysler Pacifica provides a pleasant driving experience with a 4.0-liter SOHC V-6 engine that makes 253 hp and 262 lb.-ft. of torque and is mated to a six-speed automatic transaxle.

When developing the 4.0-liter engine, Chrysler Group engineers focused on improving five primary noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) metrics: engine vibration at the motor mounts, radiated noise, crank shaft torsionals, induction snorkel noise and sound quality. Focus on these metrics resulted in improved design and performance, which includes new main bearing diameters on the crankshaft, lower reciprocating-mass piston and rod assemblies, an improved block and oil pan structure, reduced bearing clearance and a low rumble intake manifold.

The six-speed automatic transaxle is standard on all Pacifica models equipped with a 4.0-liter, V-6 engine. Building on the capability of Chrysler's four-speed automatic transaxle, the six-speed automatic transaxle adds two new primary gear ratios and a secondary ratio for optimized passing performance at highway speeds. The gear ratios of the six-speed transaxle allow the engine to work at lower speeds, providing improvements in highway fuel economy.

Marketing

The Pacifica meets the demands of active individuals who require more space and utility than a passenger car and a ride and exterior package that is more car-like than an SÚV or minivan.
