Capabilities: Towing, Payload & All-Weather Functionality
A modern minivan must be versatile enough to act as a family hauler, a cargo van, and a weekend tow rig. The 2026 Pacifica handles all three roles flawlessly.
- Towing: When properly equipped with the Trailer-Tow Group, the 2026 Chrysler Pacifica achieves a maximum towing capacity of 3,600 lbs. This is more than enough capability to haul a small boat, a pop-up camper, or a utility trailer full of ATVs.
- Payload & Hauling: With its heavy-duty suspension and rigid steel unibody construction, the Pacifica provides a stable, controlled ride even when loaded to the brim with passengers and cargo.
