The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Touring L delivers impressive value by packing a robust suite of standard features-such as leather-trimmed seats, heated front seats, a power liftgate, and a rear-seat DVD system-at a price point where competitors often require expensive upgrades for similar amenities.
Analytical buyers comparing spec sheets will notice the Pacifica Touring L stands out for including essentials like three-zone air conditioning, a rear-view camera, and SafetyTec features as standard. Those commuting around St. Louis or shuttling family will benefit from the 3rd row split-bench seating, power driver seat, remote keyless entry, and the easy-to-clean Black/Alloy interior. This minivan fills the needs of buyers seeking maximum feature content, minimal compromise, and a proven reputation for family-focused usability.
Performance is a key value metric, and this Pacifica’s 3.6L V6 delivers responsive acceleration and confident highway merging-paired with a 9-speed automatic for smooth shifting and optimal fuel efficiency. With an EPA rating of 19 city and 28 highway MPG, the Pacifica offers real savings at the pump, especially compared to many three-row SUVs or older minivans. The front-wheel-drive layout ensures predictable handling and lower maintenance costs compared to all-wheel-drive competitors, helping families keep long-term expenses in check without sacrificing everyday drivability.
Safety value is a Pacifica hallmark, with standard features like the ParkView rear back-up camera, multiple airbags (including knee protection for front occupants), electronic stability control, ABS, and SafetyTec driver assistance. Where some competitors make rear-view cameras or blind spot systems optional, these technologies come included here, maximizing peace of mind without added premiums. The Pacifica’s active safety suite is further enhanced by four-wheel disc brakes, brake assist, and tire pressure monitoring-all standard, not extra.
Standard equipment is a clear strong point: the Pacifica Touring L comes with leather-trimmed bucket seats, front dual-zone and rear air conditioning, Uconnect 3 with 5" and 8.4" displays, power sliding doors, a power liftgate, remote keyless entry, heated mirrors, and a single rear overhead DVD system for keeping passengers entertained. The inclusion of features like the Garage door transmitter, roof rack, and steering wheel-mounted audio controls means daily errands and family trips are easier and more enjoyable right out of the box-no costly add-ons required.
When compared with the Honda Odyssey EX and Toyota Sienna LE, the Pacifica Touring L routinely offers more standard features for the price, especially in terms of infotainment and comfort. While those competitors may require stepping up to pricier trims for leather seating or advanced entertainment, this minivan provides them at the Touring L level. Its combination of equipment, efficiency, and practicality ensures buyers maximize value without trading away quality or comfort.
What’s included as standard equipment? Leather seating, heated front seats, advanced Uconnect infotainment, a DVD system, and SafetyTec driver aids are all standard on this trim.
