How do the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid technology systems work?

It’s a pretty complex system, but we’ll try to simplify it for you. The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid utilizes two electric drive motors, a planetary gear set and a one-way clutch internal to its transmission. Each electric drive motor has a primary function. One motor is used for charging the HV battery and starting the gas engine while the other is used solely for electric drive operation. The Pacifica Hybrid is unique in that given the one-way clutch, the charging/starting motor can also be used in dual motor electric drive. This additional functionality improves efficiency and also allows for increased all-electric drive vehicle speed. The V6 engine is seamlessly integrated into the powertrain and contributes toward HV battery charging or vehicle propulsion automatically based on driving conditions. There is no need for the driver to select modes, no matter what speed or environment.

What are the fuel requirements for the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid?

The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid requires unleaded regular gasoline having a posted octane number of 87. The use of higher octane premium gasoline is not required. Do not use E85 fuel or other ethanol blends greater than 15% in this engine.
