2020 Toyota Sienna vs. 2020 Chrysler Pacifica

Buying a luxury car is a big decision that should be taken with proper research. If you are looking for a minivan, there are some good options including the 2020 Toyota Sienna and the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica. Let us do a comparison to understand why most shoppers choose Toyota over Pacifica.

Design & Style

The 2020 Chrysler Pacifica comes standard with cloth upholstery and power-adjustable driver seats. Upgrades include ventilated front seats, heated front seats, power-adjustable front seats and leather upholstery. There are ample legroom and headroom in the front, but the same cannot be said about the rear seats. In fact, seats can be uncomfortable in both the rows, for extended trips. The interior has a good fit and finishing, but there are some low-drab materials as well.

The 2020 Toyota Sienna is an 8-seater car with all the three rows fairly accommodating in terms of space. There is excellent outside visibility and a comfortable driving position to suit yourself. The cabin feels good with high-end surfaces and modern styling.

Technology & Safety

The 2020 Pacifica comes standard with a 7-inch screen, a 6-speaker stereo, satellite radio, Bluetooth, USB port, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Most of the basic features are not available as standard, rather you need to opt for it. Speaking of safety features, we have rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, rear cross-traffic alert and blind-spot monitoring. Optional features include automatic high-beam headlights, automatic emergency braking and forward-collision warning.

The 2020 Toyota Sienna comes with an Entune infotainment system featuring Apple CarPlay, Wi-Fi hot spot, Bluetooth, 6-speaker stereo, 6 USB ports and a 7-inch screen. The system is quite intuitive with plenty of physical controls on offer. It has a fresh interface and sharper graphics than the most rival systems. Safety features include pre-collision warning, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, lane departure warning and a rearview camera.

Performance

With the 2020 Chrysler Pacifica, you have a single option in the 287-HP base engine coupled with 9-speed automatic transmission. It doesn't feel as fast as other competitors, although the transmission is refined.

On the other hand, Sienna is a quick minivan powered by a 296-HP V6 engine that has enough oomph to easily accelerate this car, and it allows for quick highway passing. The 8-speed automatic transmission is truly responsive.

The Bottom Line

The 2020 Toyota Sienna is a great minivan model with a long list of features on offer. It provides an excellent fuel economy, comfortable ride and a handsome cabin. This should be definitely in your shopping list, if you are looking to buy a minivan.
