Since its debut in 2017, the passenger-pleasing Chrysler Pacifica has been ticking all the right boxes for families on the move. All 2018-2022 Chrysler Pacifica are powered by a 287-hp, 3.6L V6 engine and paired with standard front-wheel drive and a nine-speed automatic transmission. A plug-in hybrid Pacifica is also available for the 2018-2022 model years, pairing the same 3.6L engine with dual onboard electric motors.

The wagon-like, seven-seat Ford Flex closed out its final year of production in 2019 but remains a solid option if you're seeking elevated visibility and edgy exterior styling. The 2016-2019 Flex has two engine options: a 287-hp 3.5L V6 base engine or a turbocharged 3.5L V6 with 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. Both V6 engines can tow up to an estimated 4,500 lbs on 2016-2019 models when properly equipped.²

Large windows keep things light and airy, with seating that can be configured for six or seven. The Flex's minimalist boxy silhouette may be hard to ignore, but the stylized features don't end there. Front-hinge rear doors, privacy glass as standard, and some slick appearance package options ensure this classy transporter has consistent curb appeal (2016-2019 models).

This seven-seater has family-friendly features, the powertrain chops to haul and tow, and an upscale interior style. Motivated by a 3.5L V6 engine with Xtronic CVT^® sending power to the front wheels, the 2015-2016 Nissan Quest has capability in spades. When properly equipped, it can tow up to an estimated 3,500 lbs, which makes the Quest about equal in comparison to similar vehicles.²

Features on the 2016 entry-level S trim Quest tend to be helpful rather than head-turning, but that's no bad thing since they include fold-flat capability for the second- and third-row seats, cruise control functionality, and two 12-volt DC power outlets. Higher trims add more convenience and luxury, such as power sliding rear doors and tri-zone automatic climate control (SV and above). Find a 2016 Quest kitted out with one of its four available packages (trim-dependent), and you could be enjoying an upgrade to leather upholstery, rear-row DVD entertainment, dual opening moonroof, or a Bose^® premium audio system.

How about treating your crew to a deluxe minivan? The seven-seat 2016 Chrysler Town & Country is a practical powerhouse with the heart of a luxury sedan, setting you up nicely for big adventures and classy daily drives.

Standard features are wildly impressive on all 2016 models. Relax into leather upholstered seats and let the power sliding doors and power liftgate take the strain at the end of a hectic day. Sure, you can trade up to the 2016 Town & Country's higher trims — they add passenger-pleasing entertainment features like premium audio (Limited Platinum) and rear-row entertainment screens (S and above) — but if they're not a must-have you'll enjoy the genuinely premium feel of the 2016 LX base model.
