Chevrolet Equinox Towing by Year
The Chevrolet Equinox towing capacity listed for model years 2005 through 2023 ranges from 1,000 to 3,500 pounds. This is the span across the catalog years, not a rating that applies to every Equinox. Check the entry for the specific year and configuration before using a figure to plan a tow.
Towing capacity can change by year and engine, so the range alone does not identify the rating for a particular vehicle. Do not assume that a higher figure applies to every trim or engine in the same year. If the figure you need is not listed for your vehicle, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner's manual.
Use the listed capacity as a reference, and match it to your Equinox's model year and engine. If the vehicle's rating or configuration is uncertain, the door-jamb information or owner's manual is the place to confirm it.
Which catalog years and configurations store the highest towing ratings. These are stored min/max values, not a certified model maximum.
The largest stored change occurs between 2016 and 2017, when towing increases.
