FAQ: Towing With Hyundai Vehicles

Curious about towing with a Hyundai vehicle? at Bob Brady Hyundai, we’ll answer any and all questions you may have, ensuring you get the Hyundai that best suits your towing needs. If you already have a Hyundai vehicle, we’ll still answer any towing questions you may have. Let’s get into a few of those now:

Is the 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz good for towing?

When properly equipped with all-wheel drive and the available trailer brake system, the 2024 Santa Cruz has a maximum towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds, giving it the most power of all the Hyundai vehicles.

Is it safe to max out towing capacity?

The simple answer is no. Going over the recommended weight limit for your vehicle can strain the engine and transmission, accelerate brake wear, damage your tires, and warp the chassis. This can all lead to failures when driving and even serious injury. Maximum towing capacity is not something to be taken lightly.

Does towing capacity include what’s inside the vehicle?

Towing capacity refers to the maximum weight a vehicle can tow. This includes the weight of the vehicle, towing gear, passengers, fuel, and any other accessories or items in the cabin.

Which 2024 Hyundai can tow a camper?

The average camper weighs between 1,400 to 3,000 pounds. When properly equipped, the 2024 Santa Fe, Santa Cruz, and Palisade have enough pulling power to tow a camper.

What are the towing capacities of Hyundai vehicles?

From highest capacity to lowest, the towing capacities of Hyundai vehicles are:

  • 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz: 5,000 pounds
  • 2024 Hyundai Palisade: 5,000 pounds
  • 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe: 4,500 pounds

What’s the best way to tow with a Hyundai vehicle?

The available TOW mode in your Hyundai vehicle enables smoother driving when there’s a trailer in tow. The Hyundai TOW mode changes the automatic transmission shift points to maintain more torque, particularly on steep inclines or hauling heavy loads.
