What Happened to the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid?

The plug-in Pacifica Hybrid was the only plug-in minivan in America. Here's why it ended, what it means if you own one, and what to consider instead.

Quick answer: In January 2026, Stellantis confirmed it was phasing out its plug-in hybrids in North America beginning with the 2026 model year, citing shifting customer demand. A limited number of 2026 Pacifica Hybrids were built, and there is no 2027 Pacifica Hybrid. Every 2027 Pacifica uses the 287-hp V6. If you own a Pacifica Hybrid, your existing warranty stays in effect.

Why it ended

Stellantis said it would phase out plug-in hybrid programs in North America beginning with the 2026 model year and focus on other electrified approaches, including hybrid and range-extended vehicles. The decision covered the Jeep Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe along with the Pacifica Hybrid.

What the Pacifica Hybrid offered

SpecPacifica Hybrid (2025 and 2026)
Electric range32 miles (EPA)
Efficiency82 MPGe; 30 mpg combined on gas (EPA)
Battery16 kWh, under the second-row floor
Level 2 chargingAbout 2 hours
All-wheel driveNot offered

If you're shopping used, those numbers still matter: a Pacifica Hybrid that charges at home can cover many daily commutes on electricity.

If you own a Pacifica Hybrid

  • Warranty: the end of production doesn't change your existing coverage. In California, the high-voltage battery is generally covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles under the emissions warranty; in most other states it's 10 years or 100,000 miles. Check the warranty booklet for your model year.
  • Service: Chrysler dealers continue to service the Pacifica Hybrid. Our service department can handle routine maintenance and warranty work.
  • Recalls: some 2017 and 2018 Pacifica Hybrids were recalled for a battery fire risk. Check for open recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask our service team.

What to consider instead

Every 2027 Pacifica uses the 3.6L V6, EPA-rated at 22 mpg combined with front-wheel drive. It also offers something the Hybrid never did: all-wheel drive, on Select, Limited and Pinnacle. And second-row Stow 'n Go comes standard on LX, Select and Limited. See the full lineup on our Pacifica overview.

Chrysler hasn't announced a replacement plug-in or hybrid minivan for the current lineup.
