Best of the 2021 Chrysler Lineup

A Look at Chryslers Trim & Tech-Laden Lineup for 2021

Here’s What’s Happening With the Latest 2021 Chrysler Models

The Best Chrysler Vehicles for 2021

  1. 2021 Chrysler 300
  2. 2021 Chrysler Pacifica
  3. 2021 Chrysler Voyager

Chrysler’s lineup is smaller that it has been in years past, but the company is now the torch carrier for Fiat Chrysler’s minivan ambitions, so at least there’s that. There’s also the fact that those minivans are solid vehicles, deserving of a closer look.

Like many vehicles in FCA’s vast product catalog, Chryslers can be loaded to the gills with tech and safety equipment. The automaker also updated the Pacifica minivan with all-wheel drive for the first time in its history.

Our Thoughts: Pros & Cons

Summary: The Chrysler 3oo is one of the last big sedans on the market.

Pros: Big-car interior, attractive style, optional muscle car V8

Cons: Missing safety tech, expensive given its age

Chrysler has made moves to slim its 300 lineup for 2021, removing two trims. The 2021 300 is offered with two engines, and can be had with some new standard gear that includes parking sensors, blind spot monitors, and rear cross-traffic alerts.

The car will be offered with two engines for the 2021 model year. The standard unit is a 3.6-liter V6 that produces 292 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. A 5.7-liter Hemi is available that makes 363 horsepower and 394 pound-feet of torque. The 300S gets a slightly more powerful version of the V6 that makes 300 horsepower and 264 lb-ft of torque.

Our Thoughts: Pros & Cons

Summary: The Chrysler Pacifica brings style to family hauling.

Pros: Neat folding seats, efficient PHEV models, clever storage space

Cons: Low-rent interior bits, minivan in an SUV’s world

The Chrysler Pacifica has gone high-tech to compete with Toyota, Kia, and Honda in the minivan game. The company has added a frugal plug-in hybrid model in recent years and is offering all-wheel drive for the van for the first time ever.

The 2021 Pacifica can be ordered with a 3.6-liter V6 that makes 287 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque, or with a 3.6-liter Hybrid V6 powertrain that produces 260 total system horsepower.

  • Fuel Economy: Up to 28 mpg highway
  • Basic Warranty: 5 years / 60,000 miles
  • Our Rating: 8/10

Our Thoughts: Pros & Cons

Summary: The Voyager brings value, but not much more to the table.

Pros: Low price, solid interior storage, upscale styling

Cons: Almost nothing good is standard, no Stow ‘n Go seats

Dodge killed off the caravan and passed the cheap minivan torch to Chrysler, who debuted the Voyager for the 2020 model year. It’s got a budget-friendly price tag, the same looks as its larger and more expensive sibling, and plenty of clever storage to keep the family happy on longer road trips.

The 2021 Voyager is powered by a 287-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 that also produces 262 pound-feet of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission is standard.
