For minivan shoppers, the fuel-efficient minivans chart puts its 29 city MPG and 30 highway MPG in the right context.

Who it suits

It suits a driver who wants a minivan body and can charge at 240 volts, with a 32-mile EPA range before relying more on gasoline. The 30 MPG combined rating also gives a clear figure for longer trips.

Trade-offs

The plug-in system brings 82 combined MPGe and a two-hour 240-volt charge time, but the vehicle still uses gasoline and is rated at 30 MPG combined. Its energy-use figure is 41 kWh per 100 miles.

The EPA lists four stars for frontal crash and rollover ratings, five stars for side crash and overall safety ratings, and two NHTSA recalls.

Verdict

Choose the Pacifica Hybrid if you need a front-wheel-drive minivan and your regular driving can make use of its 32-mile EPA range. Its 82 MPGe combined figure rewards charging, while the 30 MPG combined gasoline rating remains the number to plan around when trips run longer. The $2,250 annual fuel-cost estimate gives the running-cost baseline. A two-hour 240-volt charge time supports routine plug-in use, but this is still a gasoline vehicle rather than a long-range electric model.
