2026 Chrysler Pacifica Select: Natick Buyers Guide

2026 Chrysler Pacifica at Brigham-Gill Village CDJR in Natick, MA

Quick Answer: 2026 Chrysler Pacifica Select

The Select opens the 2026 Pacifica lineup at $44,445 MSRP before destination, front-wheel drive, with all-wheel drive available for roughly $3,000 more. It carries the full 287-hp 3.6L V6 and 9-speed automatic, a 10.1-inch Uconnect touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, tri-zone climate control, Stow ‘n Go seating in both rear rows, and seating for up to eight in front-wheel-drive form (seven with AWD). Nothing about the Select feels stripped down — it's simply the version without the leather, the power liftgate and the panoramic roof the pricier trims add.

What the entry price actually buys

Chrysler didn't hold back the fundamentals for the base trim. Select gets the same 287-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 and 9-speed automatic as Limited and Pinnacle, the same 10.1-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen with wired and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the same Stow ‘n Go second- and third-row seats that fold flat into the floor. Tri-zone automatic climate control is standard, along with a 6-speaker sound system and the driver-assist suite Chrysler markets across the lineup, including forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking and blind-spot monitoring. What Select skips is mostly comfort trim — no Nappa leather, no hands-free power liftgate, no panoramic sunroof, and a smaller speaker count than the Alpine-equipped trims above it.

One quirk worth knowing: front-wheel-drive Select seats up to eight, one more than every other 2026 Pacifica trim and configuration. Add all-wheel drive and seating drops to seven, since the AWD hardware occupies some of the floor space the eighth-seat Stow ‘n Go position needs.

Front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive

Front-wheel drive is standard and handles the vast majority of MetroWest driving without complaint. All-wheel drive adds roughly $3,000 (third-party pricing trackers put the exact delta closer to $3,345, so treat it as an estimate rather than a fixed number) and earns its keep on the first snow of the season, when a Natick commute can go from dry pavement to slush inside a single storm. Families who make regular trips north for skiing, or who simply want one less thing to think about before a winter morning school run, tend to find the AWD option worth the premium. Buyers who mostly drive around town and rarely see real snow accumulation can save the money and stick with front-wheel drive.

Select or step up to Limited

The Limited runs about $5,000 more and adds a hands-free power liftgate, Nappa leather seating, a dual-pane panoramic sunroof and a 13-speaker Alpine premium audio system. Bought individually, those upgrades would easily clear the price gap, so Limited exists for buyers who already know they want the comfort layer. Select is for anyone who wants the same V6, the same Stow ‘n Go floor and the same big touchscreen at the most honest number on the lot — there's no wrong answer between them.

How buying one here tends to go

Brigham-Gill Village CDJR carries a 4.6-star Google rating across more than 1,200 reviews, and the theme in the Pacifica-specific ones is a service department that goes further than it has to. One longtime owner, on trading a Town and Country for a new Pacifica: "Great experience trading in my old Town and Country for a new Pacifica, took the new car home in the same day! Ali (salesperson) was excellent and helped me transfer all our items and car seats into the new van." — Michael P. Ali's name shows up across multiple independent reviews spanning years, including one describing him as "a knowledge machine when it comes to showing me how everything works." The dealership sits at 817 Worcester Street on Route 9, and the new inventory page is the fastest way to see which Selects are currently on the lot.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2026 Pacifica Select?

$44,445 MSRP with front-wheel drive, plus destination, taxes and registration; all-wheel drive adds roughly $3,000. Current programs are posted on the specials page and change month to month.

Does the Select get the same engine as Limited and Pinnacle?

Yes — every gas Pacifica trim, Select included, runs the identical 287-hp 3.6L Pentastar V6 with a 9-speed automatic. The difference between trims is comfort and convenience equipment, not power.

How many people fit in a Pacifica Select?

Up to eight with front-wheel drive, thanks to a middle-row bench position unique to the FWD Select. Choosing all-wheel drive drops capacity to seven, matching every other 2026 Pacifica trim and configuration.

Does the Select have Stow ‘n Go seating?

Yes — Stow ‘n Go is standard in both the second and third rows on every 2026 Pacifica trim, including Select. It's not an upgrade reserved for pricier trims.

Is the Select usually in stock in Natick?

Entry-price trims tend to move quickly, so check the live new-vehicle inventory or call the sales desk at (508) 960-7036 before making the drive over.

The bottom line

The Select is the sensible way into a 2026 Pacifica: full V6 power, the full Stow ‘n Go floor, and the full touchscreen, without paying for leather and a sunroof you may not need. Add AWD for the winters if it fits the budget, and if the comfort features keep tugging at you, the Limited guide covers the next step up.

MSRP excludes destination charge, taxes, title, registration and dealer-installed options; the dealer sets the actual selling price.
