    Quick Answer

    The 2025–2026 Chrysler Pacifica is the premium-leaning entry in the minivan segment. The 3.6L Pentastar V6 makes 287 hp, paired with a 9-speed automatic and your choice of front- or all-wheel drive.

    Inside the Chrysler Pacifica

    What the Pacifica actually is

    The Pacifica is Chrysler's premium-leaning take on the minivan, built around the 3.6L Pentastar V6 (287 hp, 262 lb-ft) paired with a 9-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard; all-wheel drive is optional and is one of the Pacifica's genuine differentiators in a segment where most rivals are FWD-only. Trim ladder runs from Touring at the value end through Touring L, Limited, and Pinnacle at the top. Stow ‘n Go second-row seats are unique to Pacifica — they fold flat into a floor compartment without needing to be physically removed, which is the difference between hauling a sheet of plywood today and hauling it next weekend after you find someone to help you lift the seats out.

    Family-focused tech

    Higher trims add a meaningful family-tech package: the FamCam interior camera that lets the driver check on a rear-facing infant or sleeping toddler without turning around, a 360-degree surround-view camera for parking, available rear-seat entertainment screens with HDMI inputs, and the Uconnect 5 infotainment system on a large touchscreen. The standard active safety suite covers adaptive cruise, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and lane keep assist. For a family of five, six, or seven that takes regular road trips, this is the slice of the segment that has actually been engineered around how minivan buyers use the vehicle.

    Versus Sienna, Odyssey, and Carnival

    Toyota Sienna is hybrid-only and offers AWD — the closest direct cross-shop. Honda Odyssey is FWD-only with a V6 — better handling, no AWD, no PHEV option. Kia Carnival is the styling-forward entry — Telluride looks, minivan packaging, FWD-only. Pacifica's differentiators are AWD (versus Odyssey and Carnival), Stow ‘n Go (versus all three), the segment-only PHEV variant covered separately as Pacifica Hybrid, and an interior in Limited and Pinnacle that pushes into genuine premium territory. The right answer depends on whether you need AWD, whether Stow ‘n Go matters to your use case, and whether you want a hybrid or PHEV — Sienna for hybrid-AWD, Pacifica Hybrid for PHEV-FWD, gas Pacifica for V6-AWD.

    Pros and Cons

    Pros
    • Stow 'n Go second-row seats are genuinely unique in the segment — no other minivan does this
    • Available AWD — only Sienna also offers it, and Sienna is hybrid-only
    • 287 hp V6 has more power than the Sienna's hybrid powertrain and the Odyssey's V6
    • FamCam, 360-degree camera, and rear-seat entertainment package are well-integrated
    • Premium interior in Limited and Pinnacle trims — Nappa leather, real wood, quilted inserts
    • Pentastar V6 is a known, well-supported engine with broad service availability
    • Pacifica Hybrid (covered separately) gives buyers a PHEV upgrade path within the same model
    Cons
    • Gas V6 fuel economy (about 22 combined) trails the hybrid Sienna by a meaningful margin
    • Standard Touring trim feels less premium than the Limited and Pinnacle suggest the model can be
    • Long-term Pentastar reliability is good but historically not at Toyota or Honda V6 levels
    • Stow 'n Go floor wells reduce ground clearance and ride quality versus removable-seat layouts
    • AWD adds cost and reduces fuel economy — only worth it if you actually need the traction

    Frequently Asked Questions about the 2026 Chrysler Pacifica

    The 3.6L Pentastar V6 makes 287 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard; all-wheel drive is optional. The Pacifica Hybrid is a separate model with a different (PHEV) powertrain.
    Yes — gas Pacifica offers optional AWD on most trims. It is one of only two minivans in the segment that offers AWD (the Toyota Sienna is the other). The Pacifica Hybrid is FWD-only — AWD is not offered on the PHEV powertrain.
    Stow 'n Go is Chrysler's second-row seating system that lets the seats fold flat into wells in the floor without being physically removed. It is unique to Pacifica in the minivan segment — Sienna, Odyssey, and Carnival second-row seats must be removed by hand to free up the same cargo floor.
    Up to 8 with the second-row bench, or 7 when ordered with second-row captain's chairs. The third row is split-folding and seats 3 across in either configuration.
    Up to 3,600 lb when properly equipped with the available trailer tow group. That is enough for a small camper, a pair of jet skis, or a small utility trailer — but it is not a tow vehicle in the way a Durango or a Ram is.
    EPA estimates approximately 19 city / 28 highway / 22 combined mpg with the V6 in front-wheel-drive configuration. AWD reduces highway and combined estimates by 1–2 mpg. The Pacifica Hybrid (PHEV) is covered separately and delivers significantly better combined-cycle economy.
    Touring is the value-oriented entry trim. Touring L adds leather, more standard features, and the second row in either bench or captain configuration. Limited is the family flagship — leather, premium audio, full safety suite, available 360 camera and FamCam. Pinnacle is the luxury flagship — quilted Nappa leather, real wood, second-row lounge package, and the most upscale interior in the segment.
    FamCam is an interior camera mounted near the headliner that displays a live view of the rear seats on the front infotainment screen. It lets the driver check on rear-facing infants, sleeping kids, or anything happening behind without turning around. It is a Pacifica-exclusive feature in the segment as of the 2025 model year.
    3 years or 36,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage and 5 years or 60,000 miles of powertrain coverage, whichever comes first. Roadside assistance is included for the duration of the powertrain coverage period.
    Sienna is hybrid-only with optional AWD — best fuel economy, no V6, no PHEV. Odyssey is V6 with FWD only — sharpest handling, no AWD, no hybrid. Pacifica is V6 with optional AWD plus a PHEV variant (Pacifica Hybrid) — broadest powertrain choice. Carnival is V6 FWD-only — sharpest styling, no AWD, no electrified option. Choose Pacifica when you need AWD, want Stow 'n Go, or want a path to a PHEV minivan.
