For the time being, the Chrysler badge is only being stamped on minivans, that being the Pacifica, available in both traditional internal-combustion and “very 2020s” plug-in hybrid flavors. A soon-to-be revived nameplate isn’t going to change Chrysler’s minivan motif, but it is going to step in as their lineup’s most affordable people hauler. Enter: The 2025 Chrysler Voyager.

The most recent Chrysler Voyager, a name borrowed from the defunct Plymouth brand, was available as recently as 2022, caveated by the fact that it was only made available for fleet companies. Now destined for public sale, the 2025 Voyager will start at $39,995 before adding on a to-be-disclosed destination charge.

You may be scratching your head, as the 2024 Pacifica starts at $39,645 before destination (and $41,340 with); and while 2025 Pacifica prices will likely climb, it’s doubtful to see such a massive uptick. Well, here’s where it starts to come together: The Voyager LX, the sole trim, will serve as the new entry-level Chrysler minivan, followed by a lineup of Pacificas, starting with the Select and Plug-In Hybrid Select, and climbing from there.

“Entry level” may have the connotation of a sparsely-equipped unit, especially here where the name was once reserved for fleet applications; and while the Pacifica may offer more by way of amenities, the Voyager is far from spartan. Standard features start with a 10.1-inch Uconnect 5 infotainment touchscreen, paired with a 7-inch digital instrument display. Three-zone HVAC controls join manual-adjusting seats, and second-row occupants can block the rays with included sunshades. A number of safety features are roped in, including rear parking assist and adaptive cruise control. Styling leans into Chrysler’s minivan design language, the bodywork separating it by a few degrees from the Pacifica.

And while the Pacifica PHEV is a highly recommended choice of ours, the Voyager sees a legacy powertrain that has served Stellantis well for a number of years. The 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 provides up to 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, delivered to the front wheels through a nine-speed automatic transmission. Despite the ICE powertrain, Chrysler’s roadmap to an all-electric lineup is still in effect, starting with their first battery-electric vehicle next year and an eventual goal of going all-EV by 2028.

The 2025 Chrysler Voyager is available for orders now, embarking for dealership lots by the end of the year.
