Towing Capacity by Engine
Your maximum towing threshold depends entirely on which of the three available engines you choose.
Real-World Capability on the Gulf Coast
The standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 handles 6,200 pounds when properly equipped. This means you can comfortably tow personal watercraft, small utility trailers, or lightweight campers without needing a V-8 upgrade. It provides excellent daily drivability while still offering substantial utility for weekend projects.
For heavy-duty hauling along the Gulf Coast, the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 and the Supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V-8 elevate the maximum capacity to 8,700 pounds when properly equipped. This allows you to confidently tow large center-console boats or substantial travel trailers. This maximum figure is achieved by opting for the available Tow N Go Package. This package not only optimizes the powertrain for towing but also adds heavy-duty Brembo brakes. This braking upgrade ensures you can stop a heavy load safely and reliably in sudden Highway 90 traffic.
