How Fuel-Efficient Is the 2026 Chrysler Pacific?

2026 Pacifica driving through the city

The 2026 Chrysler Pacifica proves that choosing a minivan doesn't mean sacrificing efficiency. Even with seating for up to eight passengers and the versatility families expect, front-wheel-drive models achieve 10.6 L/100 km combined, while available all-wheel drive is rated at 12.0 L/100 km combined. Add an estimated 670 km of driving range and a proven 287-horsepower Pentastar V6, and the Pacifica is well suited to everything from daily commutes to long highway drives across Alberta. Here's the full fuel economy breakdown from our team at Tarrabain Motor Products in Lac La Biche.

2026 Chrysler Pacific Fuel Economy by Trim

The Pacifica's efficiency splits cleanly between FWD and AWD configurations — all trims share the same 3.6L V6, 9-speed automatic transmission:

Trim Drive City Highway Combined Est. Range
Select & Limited FWD 12.4 L/100km 8.4 L/100km 10.6 L/100km ~670 km
Select AWD, Limited AWD & Pinnacle AWD AWD 14.1 L/100km 9.4 L/100km 12.0 L/100km ~592 km

The FWD Select and Limited share identical fuel economy figures. Stepping up from Select to Limited for more features costs nothing at the pump. The same applies across the three AWD trims as they all return an identical 12.0 L/100km combined, so the choice between them is purely about features and trim level rather than efficiency.

The FWD trims' 8.4 L/100km highway figure is particularly strong for a full-size minivan with 287 horsepower, which is a reflection of how efficiently the 3.6L V6 and 9-speed automatic work together at steady highway speeds.

2026 Chrysler Pacific Real-World Range for Lac La Biche Drivers

With a 71-litre fuel tank across all trims, the Pacifica covers meaningful distances between fill-ups:

  • Lac La Biche to Edmonton (~200 km one way) — covered easily with significant range remaining on any trim
  • Lac La Biche to Fort McMurray (~300 km one way) — same, well within a single tank
  • Lac La Biche to Calgary (~515 km one way) — FWD trims handle it comfortably on one tank; AWD trims get close
