"The Chrysler Pacifica Grizzly Peak concept just solved this problem. As someone who has extensively covered minivans for SlashGear, I've tested everything from track-tuned Toyota Sienna concepts to everyday family haulers. The experience taught me that manufacturers consistently underestimate what these vehicles could become. Minivans offer unmatched interior space and loading practicality, but companies rarely push their capability boundaries. Chrysler's design team finally used the Pacifica's spacious interior and all-wheel drive system as a foundation for real adventure capability rather than just family duty."
"Looking at the concept photos, Chrysler lifted this Pacifica 2.8 inches in front and 2.5 inches back. That's real height that matters on rocky trails and dirt roads. The 31-inch BFGoodrich KO2 tires on 18-inch wheels look huge next to regular Pacificas. These tires grip dirt, gravel, and mud instead of just looking tough. The front end gets bright yellow fog lights that cut through dust and darkness."
The Chrysler Pacifica Grizzly Peak concept converts a family minivan into a capable off-road vehicle by raising ride height, enhancing tires, and adding protective and lighting features. The concept lifts the Pacifica about 2.8 inches front and 2.5 inches rear and fits 31-inch BFGoodrich KO2 tires on 18-inch wheels to improve ground clearance and traction on rocky trails. The vehicle pairs spacious interior packaging and all-wheel-drive systems with purposeful hardware to preserve loading practicality while extending capability. Bright yellow fog lights, durable tires, and suspension tuning increase confidence on dirt roads and muddy tracks. The approach prioritizes family space without forcing a tradeoff for capability.
