This year, Chrysler pulled out all the stops to build one of the best minivans on the market. Of course, you could go with the base trim, but what do the others have to offer? This trim comparison can help you decide which Chrysler Pacifica offering you should purchase.
Choosing a Pacifica Trim
The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is one of the top minivans on the market. While there aren’t many minivans on the market, this one is easily a top choice for families, offering great performance and plenty of features.
Touring
The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica Touring is the base trim and the least expensive option for the Chrysler Pacifica. It has a starting MSRP of $35,195 and comes with plenty of essential features. The car’s 3.6L V6 engine gets 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, which is better fuel economy than most minivans on the market.
The interior comes with cloth low-back bucket seats, a floor console that includes four cup holders, a Stow ‘n Go seating and storage system, an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, and USB port. This trim seats seven people max. The Uconnect 5 infotainment system features a 10.1-inch touchscreen with Amazon Alexa, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration. Bluetooth, HD radio and satellite radio are also standard.
The best thing about the Chrysler Pacifica Touring is the number of safety features included. Multiple airbags located around the cabin, including a driver and passenger inflatable knee-bolster airbag. A rear back-up camera with rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross traffic alert are standard, as well. There are also sliding door alert warnings and variable intermittent windshield wipers for the front and rear.

It has a starting MSRP of $48,390 and comes with everything the Pacifica Touring L includes and more. Sitting down in the driver’s seat may seem even more comfortable with the inclusion of driver seat/side view mirror memory and premium Nappa leather-trimmed bucket seats.
The Limited becomes more convenient for most drivers with the addition of power-folding third-row seating and ventilated front seats. It also comes standard with a power open and close shade, second-row SUB charge port, tri-pane panoramic sunroof, and a vacuum cleaner.

Hybrid Options
