The New 2025 Chrysler Pacifica

At the heart of the Pacifica is the proven 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, delivering 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission, this engine offers both efficiency and responsiveness. Front-wheel drive comes standard, while all-wheel drive is available on gas models to enhance traction during Ohio winters or rainy days around Dayton and Hamilton.

EPA estimates for the gas-powered Pacifica come in at 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway. The Trailer Tow Group includes a hitch receiver, trailer wiring harness, heavy-duty engine cooling, trailer sway control, and a trailer brake controller. Available drive modes (if equipped) let drivers adapt to different conditions, prioritizing efficiency or grip when needed.

When properly equipped with the Trailer Tow Group, the Pacifica adds enhanced towing functionality, including a hitch receiver, trailer wiring harness, heavy-duty engine cooling, trailer sway control, and a trailer brake controller. This setup enables a best-in-class towing capacity of up to 3,600 pounds.

A plug-in hybrid version is also available and offers up to 32 miles of all-electric range and an EPA-estimated 82 MPGe.

The 2025 Chrysler Pacifica is engineered with the flexibility, performance, and practicality that modern families need. Designed to seamlessly blend minivan functionality with SUV-like versatility, the Pacifica sets itself apart in the segment with advanced engineering, family-focused features, and real-world capability.

One of its standout strengths is a best-in-class towing capacity of up to 3,600 pounds when properly equipped with the available all-wheel drive (AWD) system and Trailer Tow Group. This gives the Pacifica enough muscle to confidently haul small boats, pop-up campers, utility trailers, or additional cargo for road trips. The integrated trailer hitch, heavy-duty engine cooling, and trailer sway control provide added confidence when towing, especially on hilly terrain or when driving in crosswinds.

AWD is an optional upgrade on gas-powered Pacifica models, and it's a valuable investment for drivers who frequently face inclement weather or uneven road conditions. The system is fully automatic because it constantly monitors for wheel slip and distributes torque between the front and rear wheels as needed

Step inside the Pacifica, and you'll find seating for seven or eight, depending on the layout. Cloth upholstery is standard on lower trims, while Limited and Pinnacle add quilted Nappa leather, suede accents, and premium trim for elevated style. Due to the placement of the hybrid battery, the second-row seats on the Pacifica Hybrid are fixed and do not fold flat like the gas model’s Stow ’n Go seating.

Cargo space is best-in-class. Behind the third row, you’ll have 32.3 cubic feet; fold the second row and it expands to 87.5 cubic feet; and with all rear seats flat, Pacifica provides a cavernous 140.5 cubic feet.

Comfort extends to every seat, with a low-noise cabin, heated and ventilated front seats, tri-zone climate control, and sweeping views through large panoramic sunroofs. Storage includes a large console bin, second-row in-floor compartments, and smart door pockets, which are perfect for organizing snacks, devices, and more.

The exterior styling of the Pacifica mixes sleek modern lines with functional family design. A bold front grille is flanked by LED headlights and fog lamps, while LED taillights with signature styling add flair. and above include hands-free power sliding doors and a liftgate (handy for grocery runs or loading sports gear).

Wheel sizes start at 17 inches on base trims, and reach premium 20-inch wheels on Limited and Pinnacle. Exterior paint colors available include heritage jewel tones and modern shades. Bright White provides a classic look, while Fathom Blue, Crystal Pearl Metallic, and Red Hot Pearl elevate style.

AWD models, available at an additional cost, ride slightly higher and feature unique trim accents to set them apart, while the Hybrid’s badging reminds onlookers of its eco-savvy nature.

The Pacifica is loaded with tech features designed for convenience, connectivity, and safety. The gas-powered Pacifica comes with a standard 10.1-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard across all trims, allowing seamless smartphone integration.

Available rear-seat entertainment packages include dual 10-inch overhead touchscreens with Amazon Fire TV integration, which is perfect for keeping passengers entertained on the go.

Standard safety technology includes Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path Detection, Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking, Lane Departure Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, and front/rear ParkSense parking sensors. Advanced safety packages add 360-degree Surround View Cameras, automatic high beams, rear pedestrian detection, and enhanced towing assist features.

The Select trim is the new entry-level model for the 2025 Pacifica lineup, replacing the previous Touring trim. It comes well-equipped with a 10.1-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen, tri-zone automatic climate control, and Stow ’n Go® second- and third-row seating with in-floor storage on gas-powered models. Due to the placement of the hybrid battery, the Pacifica Hybrid Select features fixed second-row seats instead of Stow ’n Go.

Standard equipment includes LED projector headlamps, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, power sliding doors, and a power liftgate. Safety features are comprehensive with blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-path detection, adaptive cruise control, and ParkSense® rear park assist.

Building on the Select, the Limited trim adds luxury and premium convenience features. It includes Nappa leather-trimmed seating, ventilated front seats, heated second-row seats, a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, and hands-free operation for both the sliding doors and rear liftgate.

The infotainment experience is enhanced with a 13-speaker Alpine premium audio system, integrated navigation, and a wireless smartphone charging pad. The Limited trim is offered exclusively with the gas engine and includes optional all-wheel drive and towing packages, making it ideal for families who prioritize comfort and capability.

The Pinnacle trim represents the pinnacle of luxury and technology in the Pacifica lineup. It features quilted Nappa leather seats with suede accents, a Harman Kardon® 19-speaker premium sound system, and a rear-seat entertainment system with dual 10.1-inch touchscreens for passenger enjoyment.

Additional premium amenities include an integrated Stow ’n Vac® vacuum system, 360-degree Surround View Camera, Park Assist with automatic braking, and distinctive 20-inch polished alloy wheels.

The 2025 Pacifica offers outstanding versatility with its blend of efficiency, technology, family-friendly features, and towing ability, especially in the gas version. The Plug-in Hybrid presents a unique opportunity to significantly reduce fuel expenses with its 32-mile electric range and EPA-rated 82 MPGe, while still providing full minivan usability.
