2020 Chrysler Pacifica Review

from the Cars.com expert editorial team

What Is the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica?

The front-wheel-drive Chrysler Pacifica is a minivan that seats seven or eight, depending on its interior configuration. It is offered in both regular gas and plug-in hybrid forms. The Pacifica comes standard with a 287-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 engine that works with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The plug-in hybrid version delivers an EPA-estimated electric range of up to 32 miles from a 16-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, with a total gas and electric range of 520 miles. Competitors include the Kia Sedona, Toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey.

What’s New on the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica?

A new Red S Appearance Package includes unique badging, 20-inch wheels on gas-only models and 18-inch wheels on the plug-in hybrid, red Nappa leather seats with gray piping and stitching, a 20-speaker Harman Kardon premium stereo and the Uconnect Theater rear entertainment system.

Other changes include a honeycomb grille for the plug-in hybrid, a driver’s seat memory feature for Touring L and Touring L Plus trim levels and a universal garage door opener and second-row sunshades for the Touring trim of the plug-in hybrid.

What Features in the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica Are Most Important?

Second-row Stow ‘n Go bucket seats that fold into floor bins remain a distinguishing feature that enhances the Pacifica’s versatility, while the available Uconnect multimedia system with an 8.4-inch touchscreen is easy to use. The available dual-screen Uconnect Theater rear-seat entertainment system is a hit with kids, and the Pacifica Hybrid lets you drive gas-free for shorter trips while still being able to tackle a family road trip.

Should I Buy the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica?

Quiet, comfortable and versatile, the Pacifica minivan impressed us so much that we named it our Best of 2017 when it debuted. We still think it’s a great choice for families, though its occasionally unrefined nine-speed automatic transmission has dampened our enthusiasm a bit. If you’re looking for an environmentally friendly family vehicle, the Pacifica Hybrid is a solid, albeit somewhat expensive, choice.

Warranty FAQs

What is a Bumper-to-Bumper warranty?

Often called a basic warranty or new-vehicle warranty, a bumper-to-bumper policy covers components like air conditioning, audio systems, vehicle sensors, fuel systems and major electrical components. Most policies exclude regular maintenance like fluid top offs and oil changes, but a few brands have separate free-maintenance provisions, and those that do offer them is slowly rising. Bumper-to-bumper warranties typically expire faster than powertrain warranties.

What is a Powertrain warranty?

Don't be misled a 10-year or 100,000-mile powertrain warranty doesn't promise a decade of free repairs for your car. It typically covers just the engine and transmission, along with any other moving parts that lead to the wheels, like the driveshaft and constant velocity joints. Some automakers also bundle seat belts and airbags into their powertrain warranties. With a few exceptions, powertrain warranties don't cover regular maintenance like engine tuneups and tire rotations.

What is included in Roadside Assistance?

Some automakers include roadside assistance with their bumper-to-bumper or powertrain warranties, while others have separate policies. These programs cover anything from flat-tire changes and locksmith services to jump-starts and towing. Few reimburse incidental costs like motel rooms (if you have to wait for repairs).

What other services could be included in a warranty?

Some automakers include free scheduled maintenance for items such as oil changes, air filters and tire rotations. Some include consumables including brake pads and windshield wipers; others do not. They are typically for the first couple of years of ownership of a new car.

What does CPO mean?

A certified pre-owned or CPO car has been inspected to meet minimum quality standards and typically includes some type of warranty. While dealers and third parties certify cars, the gold standard is an automaker-certified vehicle that provides a factory-backed warranty, often extending the original coverage. Vehicles must be in excellent condition and have low miles and wear to be certified, which is why off-lease vehicles feed many CPO programs.
