If paired with its rugged powertrain options and powerful engine, you’ll be able to easily haul a trailer or compact camper on weekend getaways with the whole family.
How Much Can the GMC Acadia Tow?
Your GMC Acadia towing capacity will depend on which trim level you choose. If you take home the base-level GMC Acadia, its towing capacity is 1,000 pounds, which is more than enough for the average Gulfport driver. Those who want a bit more muscle can opt for the available V6 engine, which will increase the GMC Acadia towing capacity to its maximum 4,000 pounds. GMC has also made it easy for you to trailer safely in Ocean Springs by offering the GMC Acadia tow package, which adds the following towing features:
- GMC Acadia trailer hitch
- Class III hitch
- 7-pin wiring harness
- Hitch Guidance with Hitchview
- Heavy-duty cooling system
Be sure to check the trailering section of the GMC Acadia owner’s manual in order to ensure that you’re towing safely and securely. It contains extra information on how passenger weight, accessories, cargo, and other options will affect the GMC Acadia towing abilities.
