Buick LaCrosse Towing Capacity Overview
The Buick LaCrosse towing capacity of 1,000 lbs across all years and trims.
Various factors such as trim level, engine configuration, and drivetrain do not significantly affect the towing capacity of the Buick LaCrosse.
Check out the Towing Capacity specifications for other makes and models.
All towing capacities are braked capacities. This means that the trailer being towed has a
braking system installed to assist with the vehicle's own braking. The towing capacities for trailers without
brakes will be much less.
Confirm all towing capacities with the owner's manual.
