If you’re shopping for a midsize SUV that can handle light trailering duties without giving up comfort or practicality, the GMC Acadia towing package is worth a close look. This package helps bring the GMC SUV’s towing capacity up to 5,000 lbs, making it a strong choice for families and weekend adventurers. Wilkinson Chevrolet Buick GMC takes a closer look at what’s included.
Improved Towing Capacity
Without the towing package, the new GMC Acadia has a base towing capacity of 1,000 lbs — but with the towing package installed, that figure jumps to a much more versatile 5,000 lbs. That difference is huge if you plan to haul a lightweight camper, a small boat, or a utility trailer.
The package also adds a heavy-duty cooling system is also included and plays a key role in managing engine temperature under load. This system keeps the GMC Acadia running efficiently during prolonged towing by circulating coolant through a larger-capacity radiator and transmission cooler.
Additional Features of the GMC Acadia Towing Package
Every component in the GMC Acadia towing package is engineered to support a safer, smoother towing experience. The factory-installed trailer hitch provides a secure and durable connection point for your trailer, designed to integrate directly into the SUV’s frame for maximum strength. Meanwhile, the seven-pin wiring harness ensures that trailer lights and brakes operate correctly.
Finally, available Hitch Guidance uses dynamic guidelines on the rearview camera display to help you line up your hitch with precision. This visual aid makes it much easier to hook up a trailer on your own — especially helpful in tight spaces or low-light conditions.
