9-66 Driving and Operating Use the following chart to determine how much the vehicle can weigh, based upon the vehicle model and options. Vehicle 3.6L Engine, FWD without Trailering Package 3.6L Engine, FWD with Trailering Package 3.6L Engine, AWD without Trailering Package 3.6L Engine, AWD with Trailering Package Maximum Trailer Weight 1 134 kg (2,500 lb) 1 588 kg (3,500 lb) 1 134 kg (2,500 lb) 1 588 kg (3,500 lb) GCWR* 3 185 kg (7,022 lb) 3 640 kg (8,025 lb) 3 270 kg (7,209 lb) 3 725 kg (8,212 lb) Maximum Tongue Weight 113 kg (250 lb) 159 kg (350 lb) 113 kg (250 lb) 159 kg (350 lb) *The Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR) is the total allowable weight of the completely loaded vehicle and trailer including any passengers, cargo, equipment and conversions. The GCWR for the vehicle should not be exceeded. Ask your dealer for trailering information or advice. Weight of the Trailer Tongue The tongue load (1) of any trailer is an important weight to measure because it affects the total gross weight of the vehicle. The Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) includes the curb weight of the vehicle, any cargo carried in it, and the people who will be riding in the vehicle. If there are a lot of options, equipment, passengers or cargo in the vehicle, it will reduce the tongue weight the vehicle can carry, which will also reduce the trailer weight the vehicle can tow. If towing a trailer, the tongue load must be added to the GVW because the vehicle will be carrying that weight, too. See Vehicle Load Limits on page 9-10 for more information about the vehicle's maximum load capacity.
