The award-winning Chrysler Pacifica is now available with some extra sass, courtesy of the S Appearance Package. With the S Appearance Package, the 2019 Pacifica gets a sporty look featuring black accents inside and out.  No one does special editions quite like Chrysler!  And the Pacifica S is no exception. The S Appearance Package features Gloss Black accents throughout the exterior, including grille surrounds, eyebrow accents on headlamps, daylight opening molding and rear valance molding. Eighteen-inch wheels with a Black Noise finish are standard, The Chrysler wing and “S” badges are Black Noise. A black roof rack is standard on all trim levels equipped with the S Appearance Package. The result is slightly menacing Minivan that looks like it mean business. Our tester looked really cool and dramatic with its silver billet paint offset with all that detailing

Inside, the S Appearance Package includes black seats with Light Diesel Grey accents and the “S” logo; on the back cushions. Light Diesel Grey stitching and Piano Black accents on the steering wheel; and Light Diesel Grey stitching and Anodized Ice Cave bezels on the instrument panel and door trim. All other interior elements are fully black. The Chrysler Pacifica is largely unchanged otherwise from the 2018 model year, with its upgraded Uconnect 4 systems, with a standard 7-inch touchscreen, plus Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and available 4G LTE WI-Fi. The Pacifica is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 (287 horsepower, 262 pound-feet of torque) There’s also a fuel efficient Pacific Hybrid – a first in this segment 

The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica has excellent space for the family. It comes standard with seating for seven passengers (an optional second-row bench increases seating to eight) and has enough room in back for plenty of cargo too. One of the best feature is the patented Stow ‘n Go seats with the second and third row able to fold easily into the Pacifica underfloor storage compartments,  the S edition is not all show, the Pacifica’s has good driving manners, good capable acceleration, and easy handling. Plus the optional towing package allows it to tow up to 3,600 pounds. Simply nothing to complain about. Best Minivan out there by far, and the “S” version makes it the finest looking. Highly recommended. 

2019 Chrysler Pacifica S Edition – Base priced from $53.745
