2017 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In People Mover Debuts At Detroit

In among the sleek RWD sports coupes, tech-packed concepts and butch SUVs crowding the floor at this year's Detroit Auto Show, was the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica.

It's a minivan, and in the US market it will soon become the replacement for the Chrysler Town & Country - a car we know over here in Australia as the Chrysler Grand Voyager.

Bored yet? Don't be, because while the Pacifica might look like a slightly more aerodynamic breeder bus, it's got one significant ace up its sleeve - fuel economy.
