Ford Mustang Towing Capacity
The Ford Mustang has a towing capacity of up to 1,000 pounds. This means that it is capable of towing a trailer, camper, toy hauler, travel trailer, or pop-up camper as long as it weighs under 1,000 lbs. It’s important to note that the Ford Mustang does not come with a tow package included, so you would need to add one yourself or have one installed professionally.
It’s worth mentioning that the Ford Mustang Mach-E, an all-electric version of the Mustang, is not approved for trailer towing according to the official Ford Mustang Mach-E owner’s manual. However, the Mach-E rear- and all-wheel drive models equipped with the 91 kWh extended-range battery are now able to tow up to 1,500 kilograms (3,306 pounds).
Please keep in mind that towing capacity can vary depending on factors such as the specific model, engine, and additional equipment installed. It’s always recommended to consult the owner’s manual or contact a Ford dealership for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding towing capacity for a specific Ford Mustang model.
