Pacifica Play Zone offers fun for children and adults at NAIAS

Families attending the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) have until Sunday to see one of the largest, kid-centered features in the 60,000-square-foot Fiat Chrysler Automobiles display at Cobo Center in Detroit.

The Pacifica Play Zone is located on the second floor of the brand new display and offers parents a fun and interactive area to learn about the all-new Chrysler Pacifica while taking a break from the hustle and bustle of the show floor.

Those visiting the Pacifica Play Zone can play new Uconnect games that will be available in the new Chrysler Pacifica, immerse themselves in the Michigan Science Center’s traveling Hybrid Science Zone and take part in the Surround Sound Experience, which allows parents to interact with the Pacifica’s front dash controls, programs and touch screen.

“We want to encourage parents, mothers, children to come spend time in our area (to learn) about the features of the new Pacifica minivan,” said Bo Puffer, shows and events manager, FCA US LLC.

The Pacifica Play Zone is just part of the largest display at the Detroit auto show.

Hello from the Motor City! I’m Edward Cardenas and I’m multimedia editor for Stellantis. As a lifelong Detroiter, I have been surrounded by the automotive industry. I’ve had members of my immediate and extended family work in the industry. I’ve covered it as a journalist and advocated for it as a communications professional. I have also experienced the thrills of the industry while riding in a race car at nearly 200 miles per hour. Having this breadth of experience, I look forward to drawing upon my experiences to bring a wide range of stories, photos and videos about Chrysler, FIAT and Alfa Romeo to Stellantis Digital Media. When I’m not covering my brands, I’m spending time with my wife and two boys.
