When considering your next full-size SUV purchase, an important aspect to keep in mind is towing capacity. After all, one of the most desirable facets of this powerful segment of vehicles is the fact they offer both ample space for passengers and muscular performance for towing. With the 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe, you’ll be in command of some serious strength, so #1 Cochran is here to tell you more about its towing capabilities!
Ample Storage in the Tahoe!
Available Engines
In order to properly discuss towing, it’s important to first understand what lies at the heart of the 2019 Tahoe. The base trim is equipped with a standard 5.3L V8 engine, which is capable of producing up to 355-hp and 383 lb.-ft. of torque. Paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, this lively system offers up to 6,600 lbs. of towing capacity1 when equipped with 2WD. From here, the next step up is the optional 6.2L V8 engine. With this beastly engine at your disposal, you’ll have an improved 420-hp and 460 lb.-ft. of torque under your command. Plus, with 2WD, this powertrain provides an 8,400-lb. towing capacity2. However, the Tahoe still has more to offer.
Tow With Ease in the Chevy Tahoe
What is the Max Towing Capacity of the 2019 Tahoe?
If you’re hoping to tap into the full capabilities of the 2019 Chevrolet Tahoe’s most powerful engine, you’ll need to upgrade to the available Max Trailering Package. With this enhanced set of amenities by your side, you’ll see your towing capacity2 increase from 8,400 lbs. to 8,600 lbs., allowing you to take on even more challenges that come your way. Whether this means springing for a larger camper or taking an extra ATV with you when you go to hit the trails, the Tahoe is ready for action! Just be sure to follow all safety guidelines, so you reach your destination without hassle.
Towing Safety
Whether you’ve towed all sorts of attachments for years or will be doing so for the first time, understanding proper trailering procedure is crucial for executing these tricky maneuvers with confidence. If you’ve never towed before, you might want to consider having someone more experienced show you the ropes in a safe location, so you have the opportunity to practice this new skill. It’s also important to be aware that towing something behind you will impact how your Tahoe handles, so don’t forget to allow for extra time to stop and to proceed with caution around steep corners.
