2017 Chrysler Pacifica Vs. Honda Odyssey Performance Comparison
The 2017 Chrysler Pacifica in Athens, TX, is powered by the award-winning 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 24-valve VVT engine and 9-speed automatic transmission. This combination produces 287 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft. of torque with max towing of up to 3,600 pounds, perfect for hauling your boat or trailer on an East Texas weekend near Alto or near Corsicana, TX. With the 2017 Honda Odyssey you’ll find a 24-valve SOHC i-VTEC® 6-cylinder engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission that delivers 280 horsepower and the exact same 262 lb.-ft. of torque with towing capacity of 3,500 pounds—a virtual tie with performance and towing. The Honda Odyssey Elite has standard 19-inch machine-finished alloy wheels where the Chrysler Pacifica Limited features 18-inch wheels with 20-inch aluminum wheels available. Both of these high-end minivans come standard with power sliding doors/power liftgate, LED fog lamps, power sunroof on the Chrysler/power moonroof on the Honda and LED tail lamps. What edges the Pacifica out, however, is the option to go Hybrid, which Chrysler offers and Honda does not.

Minor details like Honda’s 12-way power adjustable driver’s seat vs. Chrysler’s 8-way, the Odyssey Elite equipped standard with a rear-entertainment system where the Pacifica Limited offers their video screens as an option, and Honda’s standard 550-watt 11-speaker audio system against Chrysler’s 506-watt 13-speaker Alpine® (or available Harman Kardon® 20-speaker) system make for a tough call as to a winner.
