The Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In Hybrid is only offered with front-wheel drive. Its PHEV powertrain musters 260 horsepower from a gas-fed 3.6-liter V-6 and two electric motors, which are fed by a 16.0-kWh lithium-ion battery pack that allows the van to travel 33 miles on electrons alone. In typical minivan fashion, the Pacifica is full of practicality. The interior has seating for seven, it’s packed with cupholders and slide-out bins, and while the battery gets in the way of the folding rear seats, Chrysler added extra padding as a consolation. Pricing for the hybrid model starts at $52,750, and it’s the only PHEV on the list that’s eligible for the full $7500 tax credit.
