Expert Reply:
It looks like the Aventon Pace 500 e-bikes weigh in at around 50-lbs per bike, so you'll need something that can handle at least that much, and because of the weight of the bikes you'll also need to have a 2" hitch receiver on your 2017 Chrysler Pacifica. I recommend using the Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack # Y02443 which will tilt away to allow you access to the rear of the vehicle and can handle bikes up to 60-lbs. Since it's a platform rack it will be easy to get the bikes on and off, which is important with heavy bikes, plus you get the quality that comes with Yakima branded products.
I've linked one of our review videos of the HoldUp 2 for you to have a look at, as well.
