The 2020 model year brings significant changes to the Chrysler Pacifica lineup, with trim restructuring, new packages, and continued hybrid availability. Here's what minivan shoppers need to know.
Pacifica's New Trim Strategy: Premium Focus
Chrysler made a strategic shift for 2020 by repositioning the Pacifica as a more premium offering while moving value-oriented trims to the new Voyager nameplate. This restructuring creates clearer differentiation between the two minivan lineups.
Revised Trim Hierarchy:
