The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica and the Honda Odyssey are both capable family-friendly vehicles with eight-passenger capacities and a full range of impressive safety features. However, the two models differ when it comes to their drivetrains and their abilities to handle different road conditions, like snow-covered streets and unpaved paths. To see which model may be right for you, check out this comparison review.Â

While both models offer comparable torque, the Pacifica does come out slightly ahead in terms of horsepower. However, its available all-wheel drive system and features, such as Engine Start Stop (ESS) technology, make it a more capable and efficient choice when compared to the Honda. An example of this is the towing capacity. Despite their similarly-sized V6 engines, the Chrysler minivan can haul an estimated 1,633 kg, which is 100 kg more than the Odyssey.Â
