Chrysler Pacifica 3.6L eHybrid Pentastar Engine Named A Wards Automotive 10 Best Engine

The heart and soul of the Pacifica Hybrid is a Fiat Chrysler propulsion system mating the automaker’s stellar 3.6L Pentastar V-6 with an FCA-developed dual-motor, eFlite electrically
variable transmission. Unlike most electrical drive units, where one motor is dedicated solely as a generator and a second exclusively putting torque to the wheels, the eFlite system uses both to power the wheels. This permits a smaller drive motor, which smartly reduces the system package.
