The 2025 Chrysler Pacifica is making waves with a refined lineup and exciting updates at Landmark Dodge of Morrow! By narrowing its range from five trims to three, Chrysler has simplified the buying process without compromising on the premium features that have made this minivan a family favorite. A standout change is the introduction of the new Select trim, which replaces the previous Touring model.
The Select trim takes cues from last year’s Touring L, making it a more well-rounded base option. What sets the 2025 lineup apart is the flexibility across trims—both the entry-level Select and top-tier Pinnacle are available with either a gasoline engine or a plug-in hybrid powertrain. This gives buyers a choice between fuel efficiency and power. The mid-range Limited trim is available only with a gas engine, offering a balanced mix of luxury and practicality.
By trimming the lineup, Chrysler ensures that buyers can easily find the right Pacifica to meet their needs, whether it’s about performance, eco-friendliness, or both. Under the hood, the 2025 Pacifica sticks with its reliable 3.6-liter V6 engine, producing 287 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. Paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission, this engine balances power and smooth handling, making it ideal for daily errands or long road trips with the family.
Front-wheel drive comes standard, while all-wheel drive is available on all trims for those who need extra traction in challenging weather conditions. Although official fuel economy figures for the 2025 model aren't out yet, they are expected to be close to the 2024 numbers, where the front-wheel-drive Pacifica earned 19 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. All-wheel-drive models saw slightly lower ratings of 17 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 20 mpg combined.
For those prioritizing efficiency, the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) Pacifica offers an excellent alternative. The PHEV model pairs the V6 engine with two electric motors and a continuously variable transmission (CVT) for optimized efficiency. The hybrid system is available only in front-wheel drive and produces 260 horsepower. The 16-kilowatt-hour battery allows the 2024 model to travel up to 32 miles on electric power alone, with an estimated combined EPA rating of 30 mpg.
This makes it a great option for eco-conscious families who don’t want to compromise on performance. In addition to power, the 2025 Pacifica also excels in safety. Each trim has essential safety features, including forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality. The Pacifica also includes blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning, and rear parking sensors with automatic braking, ensuring peace of mind on every trip.
Despite being the entry-level option, the Select trim comes generously equipped. It includes LED front lighting, a power liftgate, power sliding doors, keyless entry, remote start, and rain-sensing windshield wipers for maximum convenience. Inside, synthetic leather seats, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel provide comfort. Chrysler’s Stow 'n Go second-row seats fold flat into the floor, offering versatile cargo space, while the 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system comes with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, and satellite radio.
If you're looking for added luxury, the Limited trim (available only with the gas engine) steps it up with a hands-free power liftgate, a dual-pane panoramic moonroof, and ventilated front seats upholstered in Nappa leather. The trim also includes built-in navigation, a 13-speaker Alpine sound system, and heated second-row seats, making it a comfortable and tech-forward choice.
At the top of the lineup, the Pinnacle trim takes things to the next level with quilted Nappa leather seats, hands-free power-sliding doors, and a built-in vacuum (in the gas version). Rear passengers will enjoy dual 10.1-inch touchscreens with Amazon Fire TV and a Blu-ray player. High-tech features like automated parking, a 360-degree camera system, and a premium sound system with 19 speakers (20 in the PHEV) make this trim the epitome of luxury.
Whether you opt for the powerful gas engine or the eco-friendly hybrid, the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica offers a luxurious, tech-filled, and safe driving experience for families.
