Minivan's Long Overdue Popularity

The Globe and Mail reported, four decades since their initial appearance on the road, minivans are experiencing a resurgence. Sales are climbing, and they appear remarkably well-suited for the impending electric era.

Chrysler made the first minivan in North America. The year was 1983.Its Canadian-made Pacifica van sales have gone through the roof since then. It sold 120% more in the third quarter of 2022. There isn't a good chance that this big rise is just because demand was held back last year by problems with supply.

In the US in the third quarter of this year, Chrysler sold 112,000 Pacifica minivans. That means more cars were sold than in 2019.
