Chrysler designed a minivan for autistic passengers
Calm Cabin package includes accessories to reduce anxiety
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Chrysler Pacifica will soon be living up to its name in a new way.
Chrysler has teamed up with the Autism Society of America to develop a package of accessories that creates a "calm cabin" in the minivan to help reduce anxiety.
"At Chrysler, we believe it’s no longer enough to be ‘aware’ of the millions of people living and thriving with autism, we must put acceptance into action," Chrysler CEO Chris Feuell said.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"We’re proud to offer life-enriching opportunities for individuals with autism and their families with initiatives, such as our new Calm Cabin package, that bring a little harmony to people’s lives, whether they are on a long road trip or running a quick errand."
