The hybrid powertrain features the same engine paired with two electric motors powered by a 16.0-kWh lithium-ion battery. Only front-wheel drive is available.

Fuel economy

According to the EPA, the gas powertrain on the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica gets you 19 mpg city, 28 highway, and 22 combined. The hybrid powertrain can drive up to 33 miles on the electric motors combined, and has an estimated 84 MPGe. 

Interior features

The inside of the new Pacifica, like the previous generation, is spacious and packed with plenty of cubbies and bins to store your hand-held goods. What’s more, the Stow ‘n Go seats provide more interior storage than you’ll get with many competitors—up to 53 carry-on suitcases. 

As far as aesthetics go, the materials give the minivan a high-class feel, and the higher end trims have some updates (including taller center consoles) that feel a bit more like an SUV. The Pinnacle model includes quilted-leather upholstery. 

The Pacifica also features an available built-in vacuum cleaner. 

Infotainment & connectivity

As far as tech-forward functionality goes, the Pacifica certainly isn’t lacking. The minivan runs Chrysler’s Uconnect 5 infotainment system on a 10.1-inch touchscreen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integrations come standard, as does a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. 

You have the option to add-on a rear-seat entertainment system with dual touchscreens that run Amazon Fire TV, and up to 12 USB ports peppered throughout the cabin. 

Safety features 

Standard safety features on the 2025 Pacifica include automated emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, pedestrian detection, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, and lane-departure warning. This suite of features is more comprehensive than many competitors in the Pacifica’s class. 

Warranty & maintenance coverage

Chrysler’s warranty package includes a limited warranty covering three years or 36,000 miles, and a powertrain warranty covering five years or 60,000 miles. Hybrid vehicles come with an additional 10-year or 100,000-mile coverage for the hybrid components. 

Although no complimentary scheduled maintenance, you can service your Pacifica for affordable rates at the Bachrodt Baraboo Service Center. 

2025 Chrysler Pacifica trim levels

As mentioned above, you have three options to choose from when it comes to your Pacifica. Here’s a brief summary of what to expect from each of the three models. 

Select

The base-level Pacifica includes the standard features listed above, plus 18-inch wheels, a large front-center console, driver’s seat memory settings, synthetic leather, and USB charging ports on the second row.

The Limited trim is a step up from the Select, replacing the wheels with 18-inch alloy versions. Additional features include power-folding side mirrors, a panoramic sunroof, genuine leather upholstery, a hands-free liftgate, heated and ventilated front- and second-row seats, a 13-speaker Alpine premium sound system, and USB charge ports on the third row. 

Pinnacle

The Pinnacle model certainly lives up to its name, offering unparalleled luxury compared with the other two trims. These include 20-inch alloy-wheels and hands-free power-sliding side doors on the outside. 

Inside, the Pinnacle includes quilted premium leather upholstery, captain’s chairs for the second row, a built-in vacuum cleaner, and a Harman/Kardon audio system with 19 speakers.
