2017 Chrysler minivan: price up about $2,000

2017 Chrysler Pacifica
The new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica promises to be a very good minivan. But don’t let the $29,590 starting price, $1,400 lower than the 2016 Town & Country’s, lead you to think it’s also a less expensive minivan. The base 2016 Town & Country includes about $3,600 in features that are not standard on the base 2017 Pacifica. Adjust for this, and the new minivan is about $2,000 more expensive (details). Do the same with similarly loaded up top-trim-level minivans, and the 2017 Pacifica Limited lists for $4,270 more than the 2016 Town & Country Limited Platinum, $47,395 vs. $43,125, but includes about $2,200 in additional content. Adjust for this content and the new minivan is again about $2,000 more expensive (details).
