Standard Towing Capacity You Can Count On
The 2026 Traverse can tow up to 5,000 pounds when equipped with the trailering equipment. This rating accommodates a mid-size boat, a 1-axle travel trailer, or a cargo trailer. For individuals who enjoy outdoor activities, 5,000 pounds addresses common towing requirements without the need for a full-size truck.
Available AWD for Added Confidence
The vehicle becomes more capable when you select available all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive distributes power to all 4 wheels, which improves traction on wet surfaces or uneven terrain.
