Dartmouth Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM

2026 Chrysler Pacifica

Built at Windsor Assembly Plant in Ontario, the Chrysler Pacifica holds its position as the segment's most decorated minivan, offering room for up to eight passengers and a choice between conventional gas and plug-in hybrid powertrains. The gas lineup relies on a 3.6-litre Pentastar V-6 rated at 287 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque, matched to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Buyers who want electric driving capability can opt for the Plug-in Hybrid, which pairs a 3.6-litre Atkinson cycle V-6 with a dual-motor electrically variable transmission. Five trim levels span the range -- Select, Plug-in Hybrid Select, Limited, Pinnacle, and Plug-in Hybrid Pinnacle -- each carrying standard LED headlamps, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Blind-spot Monitoring, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and a 10.1-inch Uconnect touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Available all-wheel drive adds traction for Atlantic Canada's wet and icy road surfaces.

What's New on the 2026 Chrysler Pacifica?

Exterior

LED headlamps with automatic operation and auto high-beam control sit alongside LED daytime running lamps and LED fog lamps, keeping the road ahead well-lit during Nova Scotia's shorter winter days. Power-sliding doors come standard on Select, Plug-in Hybrid Select, and Limited trims, while Pinnacle and Plug-in Hybrid Pinnacle models upgrade to hands-free power-sliding doors that respond to a foot gesture beneath the door sill. An acoustic windshield dampens road noise, and rain-sensing front wipers adjust their speed to match precipitation intensity -- a practical inclusion for Dartmouth's frequent coastal rainfall.

Overall length measures 5,189 mm on a 3,089 mm wheelbase, with an overall width of 2,022 mm and height of 1,777 mm (1,796 mm with AWD). Select FWD models ride on 17-inch Tech Silver cast aluminum wheels, AWD-equipped Select and Limited trims wear 18-inch Full Polish wheels, and Pinnacle gas models step up to 20-inch Polished wheels with Baltic Gray Pockets. The Plug-in Hybrid Pinnacle receives its own distinct 18-inch Polished wheels with Baltic Gray pockets. A dual-pane panoramic sunroof is standard on Limited and both Pinnacle trims, optional on Select, and packaged on Plug-in Hybrid Select. Stow 'n Place roof racks appear in Platinum Chrome on Pinnacle models.

Interior

Every Pacifica includes three-zone automatic climate control, a Chrysler clean air filtration system, and overhead ambient surround lighting. The driver operates from an eight-way power seat with four-way lumbar support and seat memory, facing a 7-inch configurable digital instrument cluster. A techno leather-wrapped heated steering wheel with mounted audio controls is standard across all five trims. Select models feature Caprice leatherette upholstery, Limited adds Premium Nappa leather, and Pinnacle wraps its cabin in quilted sepia Nappa leather with second-row lumbar pillows.

Gas-powered Select and Limited models include second-row Stow 'n Go bucket seats with in-floor storage bins, allowing the entire second row to fold flat without removing anything from the vehicle. Plug-in Hybrid Select and both Pinnacle trims use second-row captain's chairs instead. The third-row Stow 'n Go bench seat tucks into the floor on every configuration, and Pinnacle gas models add power-folding capability for the third row. Cargo capacity behind the third row totals 914 litres, growing to 2,477 litres behind the second row and reaching 3,978 litres with both rear rows stowed. Retractable window shades for the second row come standard on Select and Limited, while Pinnacle trims extend shade coverage to both the second and third rows.

Powertrain

The 3.6-litre Pentastar V-6 on gas models generates 287 hp at 6,400 rpm and 262 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm through a 60-degree dual overhead cam layout with variable-valve timing. The nine-speed TorqueFlite automatic handles gear changes, and engine stop-start technology shuts the engine off at idle to save fuel. EnerGuide-rated fuel consumption sits at 12.4/8.4/10.6 L/100 km (city/highway/combined) for FWD and 14.1/9.4/12.0 L/100 km for AWD. Gas models carry a 71.9-litre fuel tank, while plug-in hybrid variants hold 62.4 litres.

Front-wheel drive is standard on Select, Plug-in Hybrid Select, Limited, and Plug-in Hybrid Pinnacle. All-wheel drive is optional on Select and Limited and arrives as standard equipment on the Pinnacle gas model. AWD-equipped Pacificas gain a rear stabilizer bar, larger 350 x 28 mm front brake rotors, and a 3.73 final drive ratio. The optional Trailer-tow Group on Limited and Pinnacle gas models enables a towing capacity of 1,633 kg (3,600 lbs), supported by a heavy-duty radiator, 220-amp alternator, and trailer-sway damping. An available engine block heater on gas trims helps cold-weather starts during Maritime winters.

The available Uconnect Theater with wireless streaming places 10.1-inch touchscreens on the front seatbacks, loaded with Amazon Fire TV for Auto, wireless headphones, video remote controls, HDMI inputs, and a Blu-ray/DVD player on Limited and Pinnacle models -- useful for keeping passengers entertained on longer trips through the Maritimes. Safety technology spans the full lineup with standard Blind-spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path detection, Lane Departure Warning-Plus, ParkSense rear park assist with stop, Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking, electronic stability control, and a tire-pressure monitoring system. Side-curtain airbags protect outboard passengers in all three rows. The Safety Sphere Group -- standard on both Pinnacle trims and optional elsewhere -- adds ParkSense front park assist with stop and a 360-degree surround view camera system.

Versions

The Select opens the lineup with standard power-sliding doors, a power liftgate, LED lighting throughout, heated front seats, Caprice leatherette seating, and the Uconnect 5 infotainment system. An optional S Appearance package on Select and Limited introduces Anodized Ink exterior badging, Foreshadow wheels, black seats with an "S" logo, and a black Stow 'n Place roof rack. Limited adds laminated first-row glass, Premium Nappa leather, an integrated Premium console, hands-free power-sliding doors and liftgate (when equipped with Uconnect Theater Family Group), power-folding heated mirrors with auto-dimming and auto-adjust-in-reverse, footwell courtesy lamps, rear ambient lighting, and ventilated front seats. Pinnacle sits at the top with 20-inch wheels (gas), second-row captain's chairs, quilted sepia Nappa leather, the integrated Ultra console, standard Uconnect Theater, Harman Kardon audio, standard 360-degree surround view camera, and chrome-capped power-folding mirrors.
