The 2022 Chevy Equinox towing capacity is 1,500 pounds1 when properly equipped, but there’s more to it than just a simple number. Certain model years and engines have different capacities; the latest model offers a roster of safe-towing features, and specific equipment will be needed to get towing with your Chevy Equinox.
At Group 1 Chevrolet Estero Bay, we’re proud to be your one-stop-towing shop. We’ve assembled this guide to show you what your Chevy Equinox can tow and the features that’ll make the journey easier. Read on to see the towing capacity of Chevy Equinox models.
Our new Chevy Equinox inventory is powered by a smart engine. It’s a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, balancing low-displacement efficiency with turbocharged power. Specifically, it lays down 170 horsepower and 203 pound-feet of torque while delivering an exceptional EPA-estimated 26/31 MPG (city/highway)1 in standard FWD form.
A robust six-speed automatic transmission handles the power and, when properly equipped, helps achieve the 1,500-pound Chevy Equinox tow capacity.1 It’s worth noting that, unlike competing SUVs, choosing AWD with this engine will not lower your maximum Chevy Equinox towing capacity.
Previous model years allowed you to equip your Chevy Equinox with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It made 252 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. When you choose one of our used Chevy Equinox SUVs with this engine and the available towing package, your Chevy Equinox towing capacity will be an impressive 3,500 pounds1 when properly equipped.
You can find this dynamic engine and towing capacity duo on Chevy Equinox SUVs from as far back as 2018.
The Chevy Equinox towing capacity is only one-half of cargo-hauling; payload is the other. Tow ratings refer to how much weight can be pulled via the tow hitch, while payload capacity refers to how much weight can be stored inside your vehicle.
The Chevy Equinox payload capacity will similarly vary with configurations, but a new Chevy Equinox offers a payload rating of up to 1,190 pounds when properly equipped. With a 63.9 cubic foot maximum cargo capacity, the Chevy Equinox unlocks a world of possibilities.
When using your Chevy Equinox towing capacity, you’ll find a high-tech suite of safety features to lend you a helping hand.
The available HD Surround Vision system will make hitching up or taking tight turns with a trailer a less-stressful task. Available adaptive cruise control will let you take long highway stretches with confidence and reduce driver fatigue. StabiliTrak stability and traction control will help keep things in check as the road gets rougher. A lane-change warning with blind-zone monitoring will help manage the reduced rear visibility.

A 2018 to 2021 Chevy Equinox with the available 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine can tow up to 3,500 pounds1 when properly equipped. Models from 2017 or earlier with the 3.6-liter V-6 engine can also achieve this 3,500-pound1 towing capacity when properly equipped.
The 2022 Chevy Equinox towing capacity is 1,500 pounds1 when properly equipped; that’s enough to tow a pop-up camper, a jet ski, a motorcycle, an ATV, a small utility trailer, a small fiberglass-hulled fishing boat, and many more possibilities.
The 2022 Chevy Equinox can tow 1,500 pounds1 when properly equipped, but the Chevy Equinox towing capacity can expand to 3,500 pounds1 in previous models with the available 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine or 3.6-liter V-6 engine.
