Room for Everything: How the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica AWD Conquers the Family Trip to the Cottage

Planning the trip to cottage country means one thing: packing everything the family needs for a weekend escape. The 2025 Chrysler Pacifica AWD turns that packing challenge into a simple task, thanks to its class-exclusive Stow 'n Go seating system and available all-wheel drive capability. For families in Ontario who know the 400 highway well, this minivan handles both the cargo demands and the weather conditions that come with cottage season.

The Pacifica's interior transforms to match your family's needs. With Stow 'n Go seating, the second and third rows fold completely into the floor, creating a massive cargo area that rivals many full-size SUVs. Add the available AWD system for those unpredictable Ontario weather conditions, and you have a vehicle that adapts to both your storage needs and driving challenges.

Interior Space and Flexibility

The Stow 'n Go seating system sets the Pacifica apart from other family vehicles. Both second-row bucket seats and the third-row bench seat fold completely into floor compartments, creating a flat cargo floor. This system works whether you need to haul camping gear, sports equipment, or furniture from the cottage.

Interior dimensions provide comfortable space for all passengers. Front passengers enjoy 1,045 mm of legroom, while second-row passengers get 992 mm. Even third-row passengers have 929 mm of legroom, making long drives more comfortable for everyone.

Key interior features include:

• Class-exclusive Stow 'n Go seating in second and third rows
• 915 litres of cargo space with all seats up
• 3,978 litres of cargo space with seats folded
• Available Stow 'n Vac integrated vacuum system

Performance and All-Wheel Drive Capability

The 3.6-litre Pentastar V-6 engine produces 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, providing smooth acceleration for highway driving and passing. The available all-wheel drive system engages automatically when needed, transferring power to wheels with better traction.

The AWD system operates seamlessly without driver input. When the system detects improved traction conditions, it automatically disconnects to improve fuel efficiency. This feature proves valuable during cottage season when road conditions can change from dry pavement to wet gravel roads.

Performance specifications:

• 3.6L Pentastar V-6 engine with 287 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque
• Available AWD system with automatic engagement

The available FamCAM interior camera provides a view of rear passengers, including rear-facing child seats. This feature helps parents monitor children without turning around while driving.
