While there are many makes and models to choose from, you should go with a dependable automaker, such as Chrysler, a maker with a well-known reputation for building sturdy and long-lasting cars. To learn more about Chrysler’s latest family-hauler, check out our 2019 Chrysler Pacifica review to see if this minivan will meet your driving needs.

Performance

The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica comes standard with a 3.6-liter V6 engine producing 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated with a 9-speed automatic transmission. With its quick acceleration, the minivan can go from 0-60 MPH in approximately 7.7 seconds, which is plenty of oomph for the morning carpool.

The handling is excellent for its class. Thanks to the rear independent suspension, the Pacifica can travel down winding roads and go around tight corners with ease. You’ll feel minimal body roll, and the car absorbs most road bumps, so you can enjoy a very comfortable ride.  

The Chrysler Pacifica also offers better than average fuel economy. The vehicle gets an EPA-estimated 18 MPG on city roads and 28 MPG on the highway.

2019 Chrysler Pacifica Interior and Cargo Space

The Pacifica has a maximum seating capacity of seven people with three rows of seats. For better access to the third row, the second-row seats tilt forward. The seats are firm, yet comfortable, and come with standard cloth upholstery. For a more refined look, leather seats are optional and come standard in the Touring L and higher trims.

The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica also gives you sufficient cargo space. You’ll get 32.3 cubic feet behind the third row. With both rows turned down, it’s a maximum of 140.5 cubic feet of space. You’ll find more than enough space to pack work equipment or camping gear for the family trip. One interesting feature the Pacifica has is storage compartments under the floor for your valuable belongings. Smaller storage bins for items such as food and drinks are located throughout the car as well.

Technology and Safety Features

The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica gives you plenty of technology features to keep you and your passengers entertained. The Chrysler Uconnect® infotainment system comes with a standard 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ integration, and you can upgrade to an 8.4-inch touchscreen.

Rear-seat DVD players are available with the Chrysler Pacifica LX and higher trims. The higher-end trims also carry a handheld vacuum cleaner. If you have children who sometimes make messes, this tool could become your favorite Pacifica feature.  

Chrysler also delivers a huge surplus of standard safety features to keep you and your loved ones safe, including Rearview Camera, Blind-Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Rear Parking Sensors. Optional features include Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Lane Departure Warning.
