2023 Chrysler Pacifica Limited Review / A lot of Minivan for a lot of $$$$

The 2023 Chrysler Pacifica only has three competitors in the current crop of minivans that are on sale. But each other minivan has their own unique characteristic from the all-round Honda Odyssey to the luxurious Kia Carnival SX to the efficient Toyota Sienna. How does the Pacifica stand up against the other minivans?
Like the Odyssey and the Carnival, the 2023 Pacifica is powered by a V6 engine. It’s a 3.6L Pentastar V6 which produces 287 hp & 262 lb-ft of torque (214 kW & 355 Nm). Power is right in between the Honda & the Kia but interestingly, it’s the torque as the others. With a curb weight of 2,215 kg (4,883 lbs), the Chrysler Pacifica’s engine has enough grunt. It won’t pin you to the back of your seat but it doesn’t feel underpowered while setting off from a stop or going up a hill or merging onto a highway.
One of the biggest drawbacks of this engine is the fuel economy, particularly when it’s paired with the available AWD system. It is rated for 14.1 L/100km (16.7 MPG) in a city and 9.4 L/100km (25 MPG) on a highway. In the real world, those numbers are accurate. Perhaps if you have a light foot, you can perhaps get slightly better highway fuel economy but in a city, it’ll be close to that 14 L/100km mark. During my time with the minivan, I averaged 13.6 L/100km (17.3 MPG). The front-wheel-drive variant of the 2023 Chrysler Pacifica can get better fuel economy as it is rated for 12.4 L/100km (18.9 MPG) in a city and 8.4 L/100km (28 MPG) on a highway.
The Chrysler Pacifica 2023 is not a cheap minivan. It starts at $55,690 CAD ($38,020 USD) with this Limited trim and the extras that it is equipped with will set you back $74,525 CAD ($57,185 USD).

I bought a 2018 work a somewhat work van and I started to Mod it a little to much. Now it gets a good amount of attention riding around with 147K (bought it with 69k) and no major issues yet.

I wish Toyota would build Pacifica, I would drive nothing else. Functionality-wise, this is the best of the minivans.

Very good video and smooth, easy presentation & visual production. Love this channel. PS more PHEV in any style of car SUV & truck. Thanks

Thank you! I try to book Hybrids & PHEVs as they come but it's down to the manufacturers and which vehicles they want to put in their media press fleets. All I can do is book them from their options.

I have a 2023 I bought June 1 and I have a little over 10,000 miles on it. No issues yet. Very quiet. Regarding the Auto start stop issue; it only turns the engine off when it decides that it can. For instance, if your fan is on high, it realizes that it needs the engine power to keep the battery up so I won’t shut off and there’s a couple of three or four other features why it won’t shut off. Anyway, good video. Thanks for making it. I was getting around 18 MPG in town in 29 on the highway. I have the limited model. however it is getting cold now and I am getting around 16.5 MPG in Town. Don’t know what it will get outside of town when it’s cold.

Thanks for your insight as an owner! Regarding the auto start/stop that I encountered on this demo car, I don't think it was because certain parameters had not been met. I think it was a problem with the system itself that needed to be diagnosed by a dealership.

@@MGReviewsBlog you could be right. I research for two years before I bought. The Pacifica I finally ended up buying the 2023 Limited. The 17 - 20s had a lot of electrical issues. By 21 a lot of the electrical issues were getting taken care of and by 2022 they were almost eliminated. And I was hoping by 2023 they would totally be eliminated. I have read/heard of a lot of the problems and the start/stop issue that you’re referring to in the vehicle you had is the first one I have heard of. But as you know, there’s always a first.

@@windsurfed1 Yea, I don't think any car is perfect when it comes to reliability. They're getting more and more complicated, especially with the electronics. You just have to hope that your car isn't a complete lemon.

We had a town and country for nearly 7 years and now we just got the Pacifica after our bad ford experience

What issues did you have with your Ford? Which model was it?

@willywong3243 8 ай бұрын

I have the 2020 Sport model , front wheel drive , long highway drive I get over 24 mpg, in the city is around 15 mpg

@venkateshmusuvathi8468 4 ай бұрын

have the 2020 hybrid and i havent seen any major issues except the battery heater failing once which was covered under warranty. i feel that hybrid seems more stable at higher speeds, probably because its heavier? hybrid pickup is definitely more responsive than the gas version. with a mix of city and freeway driving , i average at about 60 to 70 mpg with charging , so i cant complain. The 2020 limited was the highest trim available and came with surround cam and backseat screens. software seems to work better too on the 2020. drove the 2023 gas model for a week and i had the radio unit restart on me a few times . Also the wireless carplay was very jittery.

I have yet to try the hybrid version. I'm intrigued by it. What kind of electric-only range are you getting with your Pacifica PHEV?

@Iwo26 6 ай бұрын

It is such a shame that reliability is not there as it is the best looking van out there.

@MGReviewsBlog 6 ай бұрын

I personally find the look of the Sienna bit better, but that's personal preference. This one definitely is more versatile and I agree, Stellantis needs to work on improving their reliability.

Best looking is KIA Carnival ;)
