You wish to know the towing capacity of your vehicle or you want to choose your vehicle according to its towing capacity?
First, you can refer to your vehicle owner’s manual located in your glove compartment. You will find a section specifying the towing capacity of your vehicle using a trailer with or without electric brakes and the recommended weight to the drawbar.
These data are essential to validate your towing capacity. Afterwards, we recommend that you contact your car dealer who can advise you based on the make, model and year of your vehicle. So you can confirm that you meet the criteria established by your manufacturer.
If you decide to search on the internet, be sure to find a reliable source such as the manufacturer website. Pay attention to related websites and answers found on the discussion forum.
Here are some additional independent sources that present tools and guides to find the right towing capacities of your vehicle:
