While any of the Mazda SUVs in our inventory will have enough space for all of your groceries, shopping bags, and kids’ sports equipment, sometimes you need more than an ordinary amount of space. Say you’re for lugging your stuff to a campsite, or spending a relaxing weekend away from home. In cases like these, you may want to know which Mazda SUV is best for towing —luckily, Green Mazda has the answer!
Towing Terms
Before we break down Mazda towing capacity, it’s worth exploring what exactly towing is. Towing capacity is the total amount of weight that your car can pull. This can be affected by the number of passengers in the car or any heavy packages within it.
With this in mind, you can afford to tow more weight if you reduce your GCWR, or Gross Combined Weight Rating, which measures the combined weight of your car, with any passengers, and trailer. What does all this mean? It’s simple: if you reduce the weight inside your Mazda car, it will be more effective at towing items behind it.
Best SUVs for Towing
The Mazda CX-5 and Mazda CX-30 both offer up to 2,000 pounds of towing capacity when properly equipped. more than enough for a trip to the lake with boat in tow or a number of small trailers. The Mazda CX-5 also comes with standard i-Activ all-wheel drive along with Intelligent Drive Select technology, so you can dial in the best mode for towing.
The mighty Mazda CX-9, however, stands as the most powerful Mazda SUV for towing. The interior is designed for large cargo loads, and the vehicle is able to tow up to 3,500 pounds, more than enough for your camper, boat, or trailer.
If you're looking for towing capacity, the Mazda line of SUVs has something for everyone. You can drive in comfort, knowing that your vehicle is ready for anything you need to move.
