Chrysler launching a blacked-out S Appearance Package for the 2019 Pacifica Hybrid for the parents that to have the most diabolical looking minivan in the dropoff lane at school. The option will cost $595 and will arrive on the Pacifica Hybrid this fall. It'll give the hybrid minivan a perfect look for hauling the kids during Halloween.
Latest News Featuring The Pacifica:
The S Appearance Package adds gloss black trim to the grille surround, headlight eyebrow accents, and rear bumper molding. The models ride on 18-inch wheels with what Chrysler calls a "Black Noise finish" – semi-gloss black might be a better description, though. The roof rails are black, too. The option is available with any paint color but would probably look best on a black or silver minivan.
The package brings dark accents to the cabin, too. The black seats feature Light Diesel Gray trim and an S logo. The steering wheel also gets Light Diesel Gray stitching and Piano Black sections. Anodized Ice Cave – what an evocative name for a color – appears on the instrument panel and door trim. For a shadowy interior, the A-pillar, center console, overhead console, headliner, sun visors, and lighting bezels are black, too.
The package doesn't affect the Pacifica Hybrid's powertrain. It continues to use a 3.6-liter V6 running on the Atkinson cycle. The hybrid powertrain consists of two electric motors and a 16-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. In total, this setup produces 260 horsepower (194 kilowatts). The EPA rates the fuel economy at 84 mpge, and there are 33 miles (53 kilometers) of range solely on electric power.
