2021 Buick Enclave Towing Capacity

The 2021 Buick Enclave towing capacity tops out at 5,000 pounds. That’s enough power to tow a mid-sized camper trailer, a small boat, a flatbed trailer with a couple of ATVs, or even another vehicle. Not all Buick Enclave SUVs will be able to tow up to 5,000 pounds, but any trim that offers the Trailering Package can reach the upper limit.

How Much Can the Enclave Tow?

The 2021 Buick Enclave starts with a towing capacity of 1,500 pounds, but as we noted above, you can reach the maximum 5,000-pound Buick Enclave towing capacity by equipping the Trailering Package on any model. While AWD is not required for towing, many Crawfordville and Thomasville, GA drivers appreciate the added stability offered by the feature.

The Trailering Package is available on Essence, Premium, and Avenir trims; only the entry-level Preferred trim does not include it as an option. It includes the following features:

• Class III Trailer Hitch
• Heavy-duty engine cooling system
• Hitch Guidance with Hitch View
• Tow/Haul mode

• Trailer hitch
• Wiring harness
• Heavy-duty engine cooling system

So, how much can the Enclave tow? More than enough to ignite your sense of adventure. 

Buick Enclave Engine Specs & Performance Features

All Buick Enclave trim levels have near-identical equipment under the hood, and all except for the baseline Preferred trim offer all-wheel drive as an option. With this in mind, let’s take a closer look at the powertrain that makes everything possible:

3.6L V6 Engine paired with a 9-speed Automatic Transmission

• 310 hp / 266 lb-ft of torque
• 18 mpg city / 26 mpg highway (FWD)
• 17 mpg city / 25 mpg highway (AWD)

Of course, even with all this power, the Buick refuses to compromise on ride quality. An innovative five-link rear suspension system helps to ensure a smoother, quieter, more comfortable ride in all conditions, no matter where your Panama City and Tallahassee drives take you.

What’s more, the available intelligent AWD system features an auto-activating twin-clutch, ensuring that power always reaches the wheels where it’s most needed.

Buick Enclave Cargo Space

Just because you can tow, doesn’t mean you have to. Every Buick Enclave 3-row SUV includes a spacious and adaptable cargo area. Fold down the rear seats to access nearly 100 cubic feet of cargo space when you need it:

• Cargo Capacity Behind Third Row: 23.6 cubic feet

• Cargo Capacity Behind Second Row: 58.0 cubic feet

• Cargo Capacity Behind First Row: 97.6 cubic feet
