Road Test: 2021 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid

Clean Fleet Report

When Clean Fleet Report first reviewed the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid in 2017, it was the only electrified minivan on the market. The Pacifica Hybrid has a regenerative braking system, which recharges the 16-kilowatt-hour (kWh) lithium-ion (li-ion) battery. Ready to ride. It was more than a hybrid—it was a plug-in hybrid.

Road Test: 2021 Toyota Camry Hybrid XSE

Clean Fleet Report

The lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is charged when applying the brakes or coasting through the regenerative charging system, which converts kinetic energy into electric energy and stores it in the battery. Because of this we don’t address issues such as long-term reliability or total cost of ownership.
