2014 Buick LaCrosse - New York Auto Show

They canceled the PHEV back in the fall along with a bunch of other PHEV models at Stellantis. They were having too many issues. I want to say the Grand Cherokee PHEV and Wrangler PHEV also got axed.

This will sell well for the dealers as the only Chrysler product they have to sell. Great to see AWD as an option to compete against Toyota. Wish Kia had their SUV looking Minivan with AWD. @Drew Dowdell Any mention of a Hybrid version as I do not see anything on this.

Chrysler invented the minivan 43 years ago, and more than 16.6 million of them later, the Pacifica arrives at the 2026 New York International Auto Show with its most significant visual update in years. The 2027 Pacifica debuts a new front fascia that Chrysler says defines the design language for the brand going forward. A New Face for the Brand The exterior redesign applies to the Select, Limited, and Pinnacle trims. The new entry-level LX (the renamed Voyager) retains its familiar exterior and offers the lineup's lowest entry point, well-equipped with power-sliding doors and heated seats and steering wheel. On the upper three trims, the centerpiece of the redesign is an illuminated version of the Chrysler wing badge, serving as the anchor for a cross-car LED lighting signature. Vertical headlamps flank the badge, and the grille features what Chrysler calls "piano key" accents: repeating vertical LED elements that frame the lower fascia. Forward lighting relocates to the lower bumper, drawing attention to the illuminated grille above it. New projector headlamps provide a 17% improvement in maximum reach compared to the previous generation. On Limited and Pinnacle trims, the Pacifica performs a welcome animation when unlocked: the center lamp, badge, and signature lights illuminate in sequence, followed by the piano key accents at each corner. A matching animation marks the end of the drive. The rear receives a redesigned lightbar applique and updated wing badge to match the new front. New exterior colors for 2027 include Olive Green, with Steel Blue, Glass Gray, and Ember arriving as late-availability options. Eight wheel designs are available, including new 18- and 20-inch options for Limited and Pinnacle in Foreshadow and Machined finishes. Pinnacle Interior The Pinnacle debuts the most notable interior update with a new Blue Agave Nappa leather finish, a deeply saturated blue-gray that Chrysler positions as an alternative to the segment's typical blacks and tans. Seats feature an all-new Parquet perforation pattern, Sol Stopper copper accent stitching across the seats, instrument panel, doors, and armrests, and Tungsten Patina non-metallic piping on the seating surfaces. Copper Alloy accents replace chrome on the HVAC bezels and door elements. The Pinnacle's Ultra Console integrates into the instrument panel, offering dual-level storage with a large pass-through for handbags or tablets. All trims receive a new Chrysler wing badge in Satin Chrome finish on the steering-wheel airbag cover. A new adjustable-height power liftgate is standard across the lineup, letting drivers set a maximum opening height to avoid garage ceilings, carports, or parking decks. Stow 'n Go Still Stands Alone Twenty-two years after its debut on the 2005 model year Pacifica, the Stow 'n Go seating and storage system remains the Pacifica's most consequential differentiator, and still the only such system available in any minivan. Second- and third-row seats fold flat into the floor in seconds, creating a load surface with more than 140 cubic feet of cargo space. More than 5 million minivans have been sold with the system since its introduction. The combination that no competitor has matched also returns: available all-wheel drive paired with second- and third-row Stow 'n Go, offered on Select and Limited trims. The AWD system can send 100% of available torque to the rear wheels or to whichever wheels have the most traction, and fully disconnects the power-transfer unit and rear drive module when AWD isn't needed to reduce fuel consumption. Pinnacle models take a different layout: premium captain's chairs in the second row are removable rather than fold-flat (to accommodate the integrated Ultra Console), with Stow 'n Go retained for the third row. Powertrain and Capability The 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 carries over, delivering 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque through a segment-exclusive nine-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission. With the available Trailer Tow Group, maximum towing capacity reaches 3,600 pounds, best in class, with trailer-sway damping and a heavy-duty radiator included. Technology and Safety The former Uconnect Theater Group splits into two separate packages for 2027. The Family Tech Group covers everyday cabin technology: Uconnect 5 NAV with a 10.1-inch display, upgraded audio, eight-way power front passenger seat, additional power outlets and USB ports, and FamCAM, an interior camera system that provides a split-screen view of rear passengers with a zoom-to-seat function useful for monitoring rear-facing child seats. The Theater Group is now sold separately and focuses on rear-seat entertainment: Amazon Fire TV built-in, seatback screens, and a multi-channel remote. The decoupling lowers the cost of entry for families who want only one of the two bundles. The updated Safety Sphere Package, optional on Select and Limited and standard on Pinnacle, adds two new technologies: turn signal-activated blind-spot view, which displays a live camera feed on the center touchscreen when a turn signal is engaged, and ParkSense-based camera activation, which automatically triggers the appropriate camera view when sensors detect an object during low-speed maneuvering. 2027 Pacifica Pricing The 2027 Pacifica lineup starts at $41,495 for the front-wheel-drive LX. AWD is available on Select, Limited, and Pinnacle. Trim FWD AWD LX $41,495 N/A Select $44,545 $47,890 Limited $49,705 $53,050 Pinnacle $54,910 $58,255 All prices exclude tax, title, fees, and a $1,995 destination charge. Dealership arrivals are scheduled for summer 2026. View full article

So happy to see this, my only head shake is the 400V technology. At a time when they could like the Koreans leap frog Tesla big time on such a large EV, this one should have been 800V technology to handle true DC Fast Charging. Excited to see another 3 row adult size EV SUV hit the market.

While I wish this was 800V, I totally get the point of being a 400V EV. I can see my daughter moving to this over her current EV.

I will expect to see lots of these on Washington roads and up at the passes for winter sports.

Very cool, probably far more reliable than the Ford Bronco's.

That is a very sharp upgrade compared to the old version.
