What is the 2022 GMC Acadia Towing Capacity?

The 2022 GMC Acadia Towing Capacity is up to 4,000 pounds maximum when properly equipped. That’s enough to tow ATVs, motorcycles, jet skis, and many other toys. At the high end, you might just be able to tow a very lightweight coupe or roadster, as the trailer for the load also takes up weight from that maximum. For a unibody crossover optimized mostly for efficiency rather than pulling power, this is quite impressive.
