Honda Towing Capabilities
Guide to Honda’s Towing Capabilities
If you’re looking for a Honda model that you can hitch a trailer to, your first thought might be that the only viable option is the brand's impressive pickup truck, but the Honda Ridgeline isn’t the only vehicle in the lineup with brawn. Honda has a full roster of SUVs that have towing capacities that can satisfy the needs of most drivers.
Honda Vehicles That Can Tow 1,000 Pounds
Determining which Honda model will meet your needs depends on what you plan to hitch to it. If you plan to use your Honda vehicle for towing recreational equipment that falls under the 1,500-pound limit, then you’ll have plenty of options. For reference, a dirt bike typically weighs about 300 pounds, so if you’re transporting a pair of bikes to the track, a vehicle with a 1,000-pound tow rating will suffice. An ATV has a wider weight range and can be anywhere from 200 pounds to a little over 1,200 on the high end. If you have a heavier ATV, you’ll likely need a vehicle with a 1,500-pound tow rating. Below are the Honda vehicles that will meet your requirements.
- 2024 Honda HR-V Max Towing Capacity: 1,000 pounds
- 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid Max Towing Capacity: 1,000 pounds
- 2024 Honda CR-V (Tradition Gas Engine): 1,500 pounds
Honda Vehicles That Can Tow 3,000 Pounds
Larger equipment like boats, campers, or RVs weigh significantly more and will require a vehicle with a bit more power. For instance, popup campers usually weigh between 1,400 and 3,000 pounds. If you own a boat, you’ll need to check its owner's manual for precise weight information. They can range anywhere from 900 to 6,000 pounds. You’ll need one of Honda’s full-size SUVs or the Honda Ridgeline to enjoy most of the larger campers and boats, but the 2025 Honda Odyssey is surprisingly capable as well. Below are the towing capacities of the 2024 lineup:
- 2024 Honda Odyssey Max Towing Capacity: 3,500 pounds
- 2024 Honda Passport Max Towing Capacity: 5,000 pounds
- 2024 Honda Pilot Max Towing Capacity: 5,000 pounds
- 2024 Honda Ridgeline Max Towing Capacity: 5,000 pounds
