From the well-equipped entry-level models to the range-topping Pinnacle, each trim brings its own set of features designed to enhance every journey. Understanding what each configuration offers helps families make informed decisions about which Pacifica best fits their lifestyle and budget.

Select: The Foundation of Value

The 2026 Pacifica Select establishes a strong foundation with a comprehensive array of standard features. Powered by the 3.6 L V-6 engine producing 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, this trim delivers confident performance paired with a smooth nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive comes standard, with all-wheel drive available for enhanced traction in challenging conditions.

Inside, families appreciate the spacious seven-passenger seating with captain's chairs in the second row. The eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat with four-way lumbar support ensures comfortable positioning for long drives, while heated front seats add warmth during cooler months. The leatherette upholstery provides a refined appearance that's easy to maintain.

Technology highlights include:

• Uconnect 5 system with 10.1-inch touchscreen
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Six-speaker audio system
• Three-zone automatic climate control
• Power liftgate and power sliding doors

Safety comes standard with Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking mitigation, Blind Spot Detection warning, and Lane Keep Assist active.

Select AWD: Enhanced Traction for All Seasons

Building on the Select's strong foundation, the Select AWD adds Chrysler's electronic on-demand all-wheel-drive system for drivers who face varied weather conditions. This system automatically distributes power to maintain optimal traction, providing confidence on slippery roads and enhanced stability during highway driving.

The Select AWD maintains all the comfort and convenience features of the front-wheel-drive model while adding the security of improved grip. Fuel economy remains competitive at 14.1 L/100 km city and 9.4 L/100 km highway, making it an efficient choice for families who need year-round capability without compromising on practicality.

Limited: Elevated Comfort and Technology

The Limited trim transforms the Pacifica experience with premium upgrades focused on comfort and convenience. Nappa leather seating replaces the Select's leatherette, while the front passenger seat gains eight-way power adjustment with four-way power recline and fore/aft movement. Both front seats now feature power cushion tilt for optimized comfort, and the driver's seat includes 2-way power lumbar support.

Technology advances with the SiriusXM 360L AM/FM/HD/Satellite radio paired with a 13-speaker Alpine audio system. The integrated navigation system with voice activation helps families navigate confidently, while the dual-pane sunroof spanning the first and second rows adds an open, airy feel to the cabin. Memory settings for the driver's seat ensure personalized comfort at the touch of a button.

Additional convenience features include:

• Auto-dimming rearview mirror
• Rain-detecting wipers
• Cooled front seats for driver and passenger
• Power-folding mirrors with tilt-down functionality and integrated turn signals

Limited AWD: Premium Features with All-Weather Confidence

The Limited AWD pairs the refined appointments of the Limited trim with Chrysler's all-wheel-drive system. This configuration appeals to families who want premium comfort without sacrificing capability. The all-wheel-drive system operates automatically in the background, engaging when additional traction is needed.

With 18-inch machined wheels with painted accents, the Limited AWD maintains a sophisticated appearance while delivering confident performance. The pairing of Nappa leather, advanced technology, and all-weather capability makes this trim a popular choice for families seeking a well-rounded package.

Pinnacle AWD: The Flagship Pacifica Experience

At the top of the lineup, the Pinnacle AWD showcases Chrysler's minivan engineering at its finest. This trim exclusively features all-wheel drive paired with distinctive 20-inch polished wheels with painted accents. The exterior showcases a black metal-look grille surround that sets it apart from other trims.

Inside, the Pinnacle elevates luxury with premium leather seating and an upgraded 19-speaker harman/kardon audio system that delivers concert-quality sound. The rear entertainment system with Blu-ray and digital media includes two second-row entertainment monitors, keeping passengers entertained on longer journeys. The front passenger seat features 4-way power lumbar support, while both front seats include heating and ventilation.

Technology reaches its peak with the SiriusXM 360L system and enhanced connectivity features. The pairing of premium materials, advanced entertainment options, and comprehensive comfort features makes the Pinnacle AWD the top-tier choice for families who want the finest Pacifica experience.

Plug-in Hybrid: Efficient Electrification

For families interested in reducing fuel consumption and environmental impact, the Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid lineup offers three trims: Select, Limited, and Pinnacle. All feature the same 3.6 L V-6 engine paired with dual electric motors, delivering 51 kilometres of all-electric range and fuel economy of 8.0 L/100 km city and 7.9 L/100 km highway.

The plug-in hybrid's 16 kWh battery charges in just two hours at 240 volts, making it easy to start each day with a full charge. The CVT transmission provides smooth, continuous power delivery, while the front-wheel-drive configuration maintains the Pacifica's signature driving dynamics.

Hybrid-specific features include a voltmeter and oil pressure gauge in the instrument cluster, helping drivers monitor system performance. The Select Plug-in Hybrid starts with leatherette seating and a six-speaker audio system, while the Limited adds Nappa leather, a 13-speaker Alpine system, and the dual-pane sunroof. The Pinnacle Plug-in Hybrid mirrors its gasoline counterpart with premium leather, the harman/kardon audio system, and rear entertainment.

Important Note: Plug-in Hybrid models feature removable second-row captain's chairs rather than the Stow 'n Go folding seats found in gasoline models, due to battery placement.

Shared Excellence Across the Lineup

Every 2026 Pacifica gasoline model benefits from the Stow 'n Go seating system, which allows second-row seats to fold flat into the floor, creating a versatile cargo area that adapts to changing needs. Third-row 60/40 split-folding seats provide additional flexibility, while 3,979 litres of maximum cargo volume ensures room for everything from groceries to camping gear.

The 3,089 mm wheelbase contributes to a smooth, stable ride, while the turning radius of 6 metres makes the Pacifica surprisingly maneuverable for its size. All trims feature automatic climate control, power windows with express up and down, and comprehensive safety equipment including multiple airbags and advanced driver assistance systems.

Standard warranty coverage includes 36 months or 60,000 kilometres basic protection, 60 months or 100,000 kilometres powertrain coverage, and 60 months or 160,000 kilometres corrosion perforation protection. Roadside assistance extends for 60 months or 100,000 kilometres, providing peace of mind throughout ownership.
