PARENTS Magazine Included Chrysler Pacifica in Best Family Cars List 2021

April 16th, 2021 by

The Chrysler Pacifica was announced as Best Family Car for 2021 by PARENTS Magazine which is a great achievement for the Chrysler brand. The 2021 year marks the second time the Chrysler Pacifica received an honorary mention by PARENTS, a leading magazine that publishes content on raising kids, parenting, and motherhood. The May issue of PARENTS magazine will feature coverage of the Best Family Cars for 2021 highlighting the Chrysler Pacifica as a great family vehicle to buy. There were other minivans that made the list that got their own honorary mentions, but the Pacifica won the best handling category. This was made possible by the Pacifica’s smooth ride quality and an AWD system that gives the minivan increased traction in rough weather conditions and in stop-and-go traffic.
