2017 Chrysler Pacifica Minivan Beats Odyssey Highway Fuel Economy
Looking under the hoods of both the 2017 Pacifica and the 2017 Odyssey, you'll find powerful six-cylinder engines. The Pacifica's slightly larger 3.6-liter engine produces 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. When comparing this to the 248 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque produced by the Honda Odyssey, it's easy to see why the Pacifica offers a more responsive and generally capable driving experience. Both vehicles can tow over 3,000 pounds, but the Pacifica's 3600 pound towing capacity beats the Honda Odyssey's maximum of 3500 pounds. Â
Both the 2017 Honda Odyssey and the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica offer standard Bluetooth compatibility, steering wheel mounted audio controls and cloth seating for up to eight passengers. However, the 2017 Pacifica comes with ParkSense parking assist and a voice-activated navigation system for added convenience and a more enjoyable, high-tech driving experience.Â
