26 Sep 2016|2,122 views
While the all new Pacifica achieves top scores for crashworthiness, the best safety features are those that help drivers avoid collisions. The Chrysler Pacifica's Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system earns a rating of 'superior', the highest possible grade that the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awards for this technology.
The Pacifica's system is called Forward Collision Warning-Plus. It features sensor-fusion technology, which combines the particular attributes of radar sensors and cameras for greater precision. The system only responds when camera and radar agree that a frontal impact appears imminent.
System response comprises audible and visual driver warnings and/or AEB. No other minivan features sensor-fusion technology; competitive systems employ either cameras or radar sensors.
High-strength materials engineered into the all new Pacifica, such as press-hardened steel and AHSS, which is up to 300 percent stronger than conventional 'mild' steel, afford structural benefits while also delivering fuel saving weight reduction. The car is 113kg lighter than the vehicle it replaces, and its body structure accounts for more than half of that difference.
