2025 Chrysler Pacifica vs. 2025 Kia Carnival: Picking the Best Minivan

If you are looking for a family-friendly vehicle, few options rival a minivan. The competition is fierce for these versatile, spacious, and functional vehicles. Bernard’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM highlights why the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica is your pick when you’re trying to decide between it and the 2025 Kia Carnival.

Efficiency

While the minivans have nearly identical power, the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica is more efficient. It earns an EPA-estimated 28 mpg on the highway and 19 mpg in the city, while the 2025 Kia Carnival earns an EPA-estimated 26 mpg on the highway and 18 mpg in the city. The Kia Carnival is also available as a traditional hybrid, which earns an estimated 33 mpg combined. However, it can’t compare to the Chrysler Pacifica PHEV, which earns an estimated 82 MPGe and can drive up to 31 miles on electric power alone.

Notable Capabilities

The Chrysler minivan is available with AWD, enhancing traction in adverse driving conditions. This isn’t an option for the Kia minivan, which is only available as a FWD vehicle. With the available Trailer Tow Group, the Chrysler minivan also provides a best-in-class 3,600-pound towing capacity, as opposed to the 3,500-pound capacity in the Kia minivan.

Versatility

When it comes to versatility, it’s tough to beat the 2025 Chrysler Pacifica, which features the most innovative seating and storage in its class. It features the ingenious Stow ‘n Go seating, which lets you store your rear seats directly into the floor for split-second flexibility. The Kia Carnival seats can be folded down, but don’t stow away.
