2021 GMC Acadia Towing Capacity

If you’re looking at the 2021 GMC Acadia as your next three-row SUV to take on the Troy roads, you’re probably wondering, “How much can the GMC Acadia tow?” When properly equipped, the new GMC Acadia towing capacity can reach a maximum of 4,000 pounds. Also, when it’s paired with rugged powertrain options and a powerful engine, you won’t have trouble hauling a compact camper or trailer for a weekend getaway with friends and family.
How Much Can the GMC Acadia Tow?
The entry-level GMC Acadia can tow up to 1,000 pounds. This is typically enough for the average Dayton driver, but if you need additional muscle for your towing jobs, you can choose the V6 engine that increases the Acadia towing capacity to the maximum of 4,000 pounds. To ensure safe trailering on the Vandalia roads, you can take advantage of the GMC Acadia Tow Package that equips your reliable SUV with these features:
- GMC Acadia trailer hitch
- Class III hitch
- 7-pin wiring harness
- Hitch Guidance with Hitchview
- Heavy-duty cooling system
Also, if you’re going to take advantage of the Acadia towing capabilities, it’s good to check out the trailering section of your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
