Families across Wichita, Derby, and Newton, Kansas, looking for a dependable minivan will want to check out this Chrysler Pacifica review before their next stop at Eddy's Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR).
The refreshed 2027 Pacifica brings fresh updates to a minivan that's already known for versatility, comfort, and family-friendly innovation, and this guide breaks down what's new inside, on the tech front, and under the hood.
Step inside the new Chrysler Pacifica and the seven or eight-passenger cabin shows off some genuinely clever engineering.
The segment-exclusive Stow 'n Go seating and storage system remains a standout feature, letting second and third-row seats fold flat into the floor in seconds. That creates a flat load space with over 140 cubic feet of cargo room, ideal for road trips, sports gear, and grocery runs.
When seats stay deployed, under-floor bins offer handy extra storage for smaller items. A new adjustable-height power liftgate also comes standard across every trim, letting drivers set exactly how high it opens to clear low garage ceilings, carports, or parking decks.
For 2027, Chrysler split the former Uconnect Theater Group into two separate packages: the Family Tech Group and the Theater Group. This gives shoppers the freedom to pick features that actually matter to their household.
The Family Tech Group includes:
It also brings along the FamCAM interior camera, which streams a high-definition split-screen view of rear-seat passengers, complete with a zoom function parents will appreciate when checking on a rear-facing car seat.
On the safety side, the Enhanced Safety Sphere Package now includes turn signal-activated Blind-spot View and ParkSense-based camera activation, giving drivers a clearer picture of what's happening around the vehicle.
Under the hood, the 2027 Pacifica sticks with its award-winning 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, paired with a segment-exclusive TorqueFlite nine-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, plenty for confident highway merging and passing.
Available on Select, Limited, and Pinnacle trims, the intelligent all-wheel-drive system can send up to 100% of available torque to whichever wheels have the most grip. When AWD isn't needed, the system disconnects the power transfer unit and rear drive module entirely, helping improve fuel efficiency along the way.
With the available Trailer Tow Group, the Pacifica can tow up to 3,600 pounds, a best-in-class figure. The package includes trailer-sway damping and a heavy-duty radiator for added stability.
Yes. Standard Active Noise Cancellation, laminated acoustic glass, aerodynamic sculpting, and triple door seals all work together to keep road and wind noise low throughout the cabin.
Four trims are available for the 2027 model year: LX, Select, Limited, and Pinnacle. LX serves as the entry-level option, while Pinnacle sits at the top with premium materials and additional features.*
