2017 Chrysler Pacifica (Town & Country replacement) revealed
#106
Better than the Sedona, the powertrain in general is smoother and more refined. I didn't feel any gear hunting, but then I didn't with my Jeep either (8 speed) until I really lived with it.
The transmission gearing in the Sedona is VERY lazy. You have to really hammer it to get it to kick down.
All in all, very impressed with the Pacifica. Didn't think I would be, but it has that solidness and that refinement that my Jeeps had, and that same feel where when you drive other stuff in the segment they just don't feel as nice. It feels more expensive than it is, also like the Jeep.

The programming of the 9-speed in the Pacifica seems to be the best to date that I've sampled (including the Honda Pilot).
Definitely a wholly competitive entrant in the segment and structure is much more solid than the outgoing models which were somewhat compromised by the addition of stow and go. This new structure was developed with stow n go in mind from the foundation and is much better for it.
I think this will do well for Chrysler.
