Chrysler debuted its new Pacifica Grizzly Peak concept at Overland Expo Mountain West, Aug. 22-24. Inspired by the growing number of recreational overlanding and van-life customers who value flexibility and a space to sleep, the lifted, all-wheel-drive concept builds on the Pacifica’s combination of innovation, intuitive technology and performance in an off-road-capable ride, company officials stated in a press release.
Maximizing the spacious interior of the Pacifica Grizzly Peak concept, third-row seats are replaced with a large cargo floor panel, ideal for tailoring the cabin for storage or sleeping.
“We’ve been following van life for years, and we know adventurers really value the versatility the Pacifica delivers,” said Chris Feuell, Chrysler brand CEO. “Our Chrysler design studio nailed the brief and really dove in. They lifted the suspension, added useful, functional features, including a roof-mounted Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform rack, TYRI LED lighting and ARB retractable awning, and tailored the cabin for sleeping to create this Pacifica Grizzly Peak concept as a test bed. We’re excited to get feedback from the van-life adventurers on our newest concept of the most awarded minivan ever.”
