2021 Chrysler Pacifica
Overview
The Chrysler Pacifica has been redesigned for 2021 with a high level of style and sophistication for families that crave both form and function. The minivan segment has shrunk in the last decade, due to the rise of the crossover and SUV categories. However, there’s a reason two of Chrysler’s three models are minivans. It has a unique take on the minivan, as more than just a people-mover. With the latest in driver assistance features, unexpected luxury, an updated infotainment system, and a charming exterior design, the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica has it all.
The Perfect Ride For...
Families who want both practicality and comfort. People rarely associate minivans with luxury, but the Chrysler Pacifica might just change that. Options like quilted Nappa leather-trimmed seats, satin chrome accents, and a suede headliner give the interior of the Pacifica a luxe refinement. Available technology like wireless charging, a 10.1-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, Alexa, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and the outstanding FamCAM® offer innovative ways to stay connected on the road.
Drive and Handling
The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica offers better driving and handling characteristics than you’ve come to expect from a minivan. All models come with a standard 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 engine putting out 287 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission that offers quick, responsive shifts. The standard front-wheel drive system provides capable handling and excellent stability. The all-new available all-wheel drive system provides increased grip in all conditions, leading to enhancements in both safety and performance. Take your next family vacation wherever you want thanks to the improved capability offered by this advanced system.
