Century Chrysler - What to Know About the 2026 Chrysler Pacifica
The 2026 Chrysler Pacifica brings together family-first versatility, confident performance, and intuitive technology in a way that makes everyday driving feel easier and road trips more relaxing. From flexible seating that disappears into the floor to available all-wheel drive and a polished, modern cabin, this minivan is engineered to fit the rhythm of busy lives. If you are researching trims, safety features, or the best way to configure your ideal setup, use this guide as a clear starting point for your shopping journey.
Confidence is a core part of the Pacifica experience. A broad suite of standard driver-assistance features helps you stay aware and in control, including forward collision warning with active braking, adaptive cruise control with stop and go, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning with lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross path detection. For added convenience when parking or maneuvering, available 360-degree views and available ParkSense front assist work with audible and visual cues to help you see more of your surroundings. Electronic stability control, automatic high beams, and bright LED lighting round out an attentive safety story designed for real-world driving.
Power comes from the well-known 3.6L Pentastar V6 paired with a smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission, delivering up to 287 horsepower for confident merges, passing, and highway cruising. Available all-wheel drive smartly transfers torque to help maximize traction on rain, snow, or gravel, and it disengages when not needed to support efficiency. Planning a weekend away with gear in tow? When properly equipped, the Pacifica offers up to 3,600 pounds of towing capacity, enough for a small trailer or recreational toys. With thoughtful efficiency and a sizable fuel tank, the Pacifica is built to help you go farther between stops.
Inside, the Pacifica is all about adaptability without sacrificing comfort. The available Stow ’n Go system lets you fold the second and third rows into the floor to unlock up to 140.5 cubic feet of cargo space, while second-row captain’s chairs with Easy Tilt make third-row access simple. Available hands-free power sliding doors and liftgate streamline loading in tight garages or crowded school pickup lanes, and an adjustable height liftgate helps clear low ceilings. Practical touches like the available built-in vacuum, abundant storage cubbies, and clever seating configurations make it easy to keep the cabin organized through carpools, practices, and home improvement runs.
Technology is designed to be friendly and fast. The Uconnect 5 system centers a vivid 10.1-inch touchscreen with user profiles, natural voice commands, and seamless smartphone integration via wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Available Alexa Built-in lets you check the weather or request a playlist with your voice, while an available 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot helps passengers stay connected. Keep an eye on the second and third rows with the available interior camera that offers helpful angles and day or night views. For long hauls, available dual rear-seat touchscreens with Amazon Fire TV Built-in and an available 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system help everyone settle in and enjoy the ride.
