How Much Can the GMC Terrain Tow?
The 2020 GMC Terrain can tow up to 3,500 pounds. The towing power will vary across trim levels and engine options. The towing power you receive depends on the model you choose. The 2020 GMC Terrain comes equipped with a base level 1.5L gas turbocharged engine, delivering 170 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque. When you opt for this engine, your towing capacity reaches 1,500 pounds.
You’ll also have the option of upgrading to a 2.0L gas turbocharged engine, delivering 252 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Stepping up to this stronger engine option will increase your towing capacity to 3,500 pounds. If you plan on towing a small boat or an ATV or two for weekend adventures, it would be best to make this upgrade.
GMC Terrain Traction Select System
In addition to the 2020 GMC Terrain towing capacity, models equipped with all-wheel drive come standard with the Traction Selection System. This system adds the following features on the new Terrain:
- FWD: This function decreases your fuel consumption during everyday drives by mechanically disconnecting the rear axle, which eliminates drag.
- AWD: Shifting into AWD mode will automatically send vehicle power to all four wheels, allowing for greater traction when roads are slick.
- Off-Road: When you’re itching to trade in paved roads for rugged paths less traveled, Off-Road mode auto-adjusts the AWD system for better traction and stability control in dirt, gravel, and sand.
- Available Tow/Haul Mode: This available mode enhances your towing experience with greater trailering capabilities through Trailer Sway Control, while improving traction on boat ramps or uneven roads by automatically engaging AWD mode.
