Comparing 2019 vs. 2020 Models

If you’re deciding between the 2019 and 2020 Pacifica, here’s what you need to know:

• 2019 Models: Ideal for budget-conscious buyers, with lower starting prices and a wider range of trims.
• 2020 Models: Offer enhanced features and a more premium positioning, but at a higher starting price due to the elimination of lower trims.

Ultimately, the choice depends on your priorities. If you value affordability, the 2019 Pacifica is a great option. However, if you’re looking for the latest features and a more upscale experience, the 2020 model is worth the investment.
