How Much Can a Chevy Traverse Tow?

The Chevrolet Traverse towing ability ranges between 1,500 pounds to 5,000 pounds, depending on which options the vehicle has been equipped with. The option that takes the Traverse from 1,500 pounds to 5,000 pounds is the trailering package. This single option is worth selecting if you plan on doing any towing on your drives in the St. Michael area, or on roadtrips.

2022 Chevrolet Traverse: Power and Features

The 2022 Chevy Traverse has six available trim levels: LS, LT Cloth, LT Leather, RS, Premier, and High Country. A 3.6L V6 engine with 310 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque is standard on all trims, as is a 9-speed automatic transmission. This is a solid amount of power and a modern transmission, great for getting the most efficiency possible out of the engine. Here are a few more important features that make the Traverse a cut above the crowd for Buffalo drivers and families:

  • Available Trailering Package: the trailering package effectively unlocks the towing potential of the Traverse, with a factory hitch and heavy-duty cooling system. Not only does this allow you to gain basic trailering ability, it also strengthens the powertrain against the extra work of towing.
  • Tow/Haul Mode: The Driver Mode Control dial has a Tow/Haul mode that adjusts the transmission shift points, so towing is made easier. It will stay in a gear longer when accelerating, increceasing torque, and will also downshift when going downhill, engine braking to preserve the brakes and increasing safety.
  • Trailer Sway Control: Trailer Sway Control is a part of Stabilitrak® Electronic Stability Control System. While towing, this system can sense when your trailer begins to sway, and can automaticallycourse-correct with the brakes.
