HISTORIC ROUTE 66 IN THE ULTIMATE ROAD TRIP VEHICLE

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles the second half of a Route 66 road trip, this time from Amarillo, Texas, to Chicago, Illinois, featuring the 2023 Chrysler Pacifica eHybrid Pinnacle. The hosts emphasize the minivan's suitability as the ultimate road trip vehicle, citing its spaciousness, ease of access with sliding doors, and efficiency, particularly highlighting the eHybrid's capability to cover over 470 miles on pure electricity alone and achieving nearly 30 MPG. They praise its comfort and practicality for family travel, contrasting it favorably with SUVs for long hauls. The review touches upon the challenges of navigating Route 66, including inconsistent signage and the need for flexibility in booking accommodations, while also celebrating memorable stops like the Boots Court motel, the Rock Cafe, and Springfield, Missouri. The overall verdict is that while Route 66 itself might be a 'one and done' experience for some, the Pacifica eHybrid proved to be an exceptional and comfortable companion for such an extensive journey.
