Honda CR-V Towing Capacity

The  Honda CR-V has a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 pounds. This is in its standard form when equipped with a 190-horsepower 1.5L 4-cylinder engine and Continuously Variable Transmission.

The CR-V may be a compact SUV, but it can still tow a great deal. Heading to the mountains with a couple buddies? Hitch a small pop-up trailer to the back of the vehicle, and you’re ready to go.

Honda Passport Towing Capacity

With the Honda Passport being a midsize SUV, it can tow a bit more. How much depends on whether you opt for the front-wheel-drive (FWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD) model.

If you go with FWD, you’ll have a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds. Need that extra traction? Go with AWD and receive a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds.

Both versions of the Passport are powered by a 3.5L V6 engine. It churns out 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, which helps give it that extra hauling capability.

Honda Pilot Towing Capacity

The 2021 Honda Pilot is a midsize SUV that has the same towing capacities as the Passport. So, if you get the standard FWD model, you’ll have a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds; the available AWD bumps that up to 5,000 pounds.

This is when you have the 280-horsepower 3.5L V6 engine and 9-speed automatic transmission inside the automobile. So, what exactly can this SUV tow? This table lays it out for you:
