The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica and the Honda Odyssey are both capable family vehicles with eight-passenger capacities and a full range of safety features. However, the two differ when it comes to their drivetrains and their abilities to handle different road conditions. 2021 Chrysler Pacifica
Engine: 3.6L Pentastar V6
Torque: 262 lb.-ft
Horsepower: 287
Drive Type: FWD or AWD
2021 Honda Odyssey
Engine: 3.5L V6
Torque: 262 lb.-ft
Horsepower: 280
Drive Type: FWD
Engine: 3.6L Pentastar V6

Horsepower: 287
Drive Type: FWD or AWD
2021 Honda Odyssey
Engine: 3.5L V6
Torque: 262 lb.-ft
Horsepower: 280
Drive Type: FWD
The Pacifica comes out slightly ahead in terms of horsepower. However, its available AWD system and features such as Engine Start Stop (ESS) 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 V6s, the Chrysler can haul 1,633 kg, which is 100 kg more than the Odyssey.
You can contact our Calgary dealership and schedule a test drive to experience the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica's capabilities for yourself.

The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica and the 2021 Honda Odyssey are eight-person minivans. While both offer adequate interior room, they differ when it comes to how that space gets organised. Here is a closer look at their seating options: 2021 Chrysler Pacifica
Seating Capacity: 8
Seating System: Stow-and-Go
Legroom (Front/Rear): 1044/990 mm
2021 Honda Odyssey
Seating Capacity: 8
Seating System: Adjustable and removable
Legroom (Front/Rear): 1040/964 mm
The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is the only minivan in its class with the Stow-and-Go fold-in-floor system for its middle and back rows. When not in use, the chairs can be stored in compartments to maximise cargo space.
Meanwhile, seating features - including the Easy-Tilt function (which allows convenient access to the rear bench), retractable armrests and cup-holders, and USB charging ports for every passenger - make the Pacifica a better option for riders, as well.

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee 80th Anniversary Edition and the 2021 Toyota 4Runner Trail are competent all-terrain performers. However, auto shoppers focus on the exterior and capabilities of such SUVs, and they often ignore the inside. How comfortable are the interiors of these two popular 4x4s?80th Anniversary Edition Interior

The Jeep Grand Cherokee 80th Anniversary Edition wins this comparison with its heated and ventilated leather seats and panoramic sunroof. Berber floor mats and ambient interior lighting add to the attractiveness. At the same time, a standard navigation system and Bluetooth provide tech features to match the luxury-level good looks. 115 and 12-volt outlets and multiple USB ports bring the practicality of wired connections, as well.

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and the 2021 Toyota 4Runner Trail can handle adverse conditions on the road. These SUVs are capable, but are they fuel-efficient enough to be effective as everyday vehicles? Grand Cherokee Limited
Engine: 3.6 L V6
Horsepower: 293
Tank Capacity: 93.1 L
Fuel Economy: 9.0 L/100 km (hwy)

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee wins this comparison. It coaxes more horsepower out of its gas-sipping V6 with features like Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and Engine Start Stop (ESS). Also, because of its larger fuel tank, it can go for over 1,000 km before needing a fill-up. Furthermore, its Quadra-Trac II 4x4 system can adjust the drivetrain to offer enough traction to overcome any conditions you are likely to encounter.

The 2021 Dodge Charger SXT and Toyota Camry SE are both five-seat sedans. Though they have similar layouts, they are very different when it comes to the overall driving experience that they provide. Here is a closer look under the hoods of these two four-door vehicles.Dodge Charger SXT
Engine: 3.6L Pentastar V6
Horsepower: 292
Torque: 260 lb.-ft

The 2021 Dodge Charger SXT comes out ahead in virtually every performance-related category. The superior torque figure gives it extra power at lower speeds; while the RWD offers sportier, more-precise handling on corners and curves. The touring suspension, P215/65R17 low-rolling-resistance tires, and dual exhaust system all contribute to the quality behind-the-wheel experience.

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk and Nissan Rogue Platinum are five-passenger SUVs.

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and Nissan Rogue Platinum are popular SUVs in Alberta. Though both can accommodate five passengers and have a similar range of high-end interior features, one is far superior when it comes to engine performance. Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited

The five-seat 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude and the similar-sized Nissan Rogue SV are effective family transporters. However, when it comes to the capability of the transmission and other drivetrain features, one of these popular SUVs stands out. Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude
Engine: 3.6L V6
Transmission: 8-speed automatic
Drive Type: Quadra Trac 4x4
Nissan Rogue SV
Engine: 2.5L I-4
Transmission: CVT
Drive Type: FWD or 4x4
With a powerful engine and capable transmission, the 2021 Grand Cherokee Altitude stands out in this comparison. The Rogue features a less reliable CVT design and a more modest motor. Furthermore, FWD is the standard option on the Nissan, but the Jeep offers the Quadra-Trac I 4x4, which uses sensors to select the best drive type for every situation without any manual input.
