The 2021 Honda CR-V Towing Capacity

Are you thinking about buying the new CR-V, but you’re wondering how much it can tow? We understand. A lot of our Tempe customers have asked the same thing. How much can a Honda CR-V tow? Is there a Honda CR-V towing package? Does it include a Honda CR-V tow hitch? You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.

How Much Can a Honda CR-V Tow?

So, how much can a Honda CR-V Tow? When this SUV is properly fitted with the right equipment, like the Honda CR-V tow hitch, it can tow up to 1,500 pounds. That’s more than enough to get that small boat or jet ski out to that Gilbert lake this weekend. Of course, you’ll want to opt for the Honda CR-V towing package of features to fully optimize the towing capabilities of this impressive automobile.

What’s Included in a Honda CR-V Towing Package?

There are several towing accessories that will help you get the most out of your SUV’s towing capabilities. They’re aren’t technically grouped into a “Honda CR-V Towing Package”, per se, but they are readily available when you buy your new Honda CR-V. Here are the available towing accessories:

• Draw bar
• Retaining pin
• Clip
• Trailer hitch ball (comes in the 2 inch size or 1 7/8 inch size)
• Honda CR-V Tow Hitch (commonly known as the “trailer hitch harness”)

Other Features That Will Help You Tow

As anyone tows along our Chandler roads can tell you, it’s not just about towing capacity. You need safety and driver assist features. Here are just some of the helpful features that come with the CR-V:

• Brake Assist – Increases the brake pressure when the driver is braking in order to avoid an accident.
