1st
Edmunds Rating
8.2/10
The Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid is our #1 minivan pick. It comes packed with all the latest technology, but its Ace in the hole is its plug-in hybrid powertrain that provides smooth and punchy acceleration and can travel an estimated 32 miles solely using electric power. The fuel savings plus the available tax credits make the Pacifica Hybrid potentially the best value in its class, too.

About Kia CarnivalRead Summary Close Summary 
The Kia Carnival boasts distinctive styling, a ton of standard features, comfortable seats and a great warranty. However, an underwhelming driving experience and some unrefined technology features keep it from being a home-run hit.

About Chrysler PacificaRead Summary Close Summary 
There are two reasons to choose the Chrysler Pacifica over another minivan. One is the added convenience and versatility of its Stow 'n Go seats, which allows you to fold the second-row seats into the floor in mere seconds. The second reason is the availability of all-wheel drive. Otherwise, this minivan comes up a little short.
