. When calculating the GVWR

with a trailer attached, the trailer tongue
weight must be included as part of the
weight the vehicle is carrying.

Maximum Trailer Weight

The maximum trailer weight rating is
calculated assuming the tow vehicle has a
driver, a front seat passenger, and all
required trailering equipment. This value
represents the heaviest trailer the vehicle
can tow, but it may be necessary to reduce

the trailer weight to stay within the GCWR,
GVWR, maximum trailer tongue load,
or GAWR-RR for the vehicle.

Use the Tow Rating Guide
(my.chevrolet.com/learn) to determine how
much the trailer can weigh, based on the
vehicle model and options.

A step bumper trailer hitch can only support
a total trailer weight up to 2 271 kg
(5,000 lb). If a trailer hitch ball is added to
the step bumper, check the hitch ball rating
to be sure it is higher than the total trailer
weight.

Maximum Trailer Tongue Weight Rating

The Maximum Trailer Tongue Weight Rating
is the allowable trailer tongue weight that
the vehicle can support using a conventional
trailer hitch. It may be necessary to reduce
the overall trailer weight to stay within the
maximum trailer tongue weight rating while
still maintaining the correct trailer load
balance.

The Maximum Trailer Tongue Weight Rating
for a conventional trailer hitch is shown on
the Trailering Information Label.

Do not exceed a maximum trailer tongue
weight of 567 kg (1,250 lb) for a conventional
trailer hitch.

The trailer tongue weight contributes to the
Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW). GVW includes
the curb weight of your vehicle, any
passengers, cargo, equipment and the trailer
tongue weight. Vehicle options, passengers,
cargo, and equipment reduce the maximum
allowable tongue weight the vehicle can
carry, which also reduces the maximum
allowable trailer weight.
