Top 5 SUVs For Towing in Ontario


It’s a conundrum; a truck is impractical for your daily city living, but you also need to occasionally do some serious towing. Obviously, a versatile and capable SUV is the next best choice for you, but which ones can come close to matching a truck in towing power? The good news is, there are quite a few! Better yet, many of those top towing SUVs are available from the team here at
Downtown Auto Group. Read on as we run down five of the very best for you from the 2025 model year.

1. Jeep Wagoneer

  • Max Towing Capacity: 10,000 lbs

The full-size 2025 Jeep Wagoneer and Jeep Wagoneer L are not just luxurious and advanced SUVs, they also pack a punch. Under the hood, it boasts a truck engine: the Ram’s 3.0L Hurricane Twin-Turbo. With 420 horsepower and 486 lb-ft of torque, it’s not surprising to learn it can tow up to 10,000 lbs with ease.

2. Jeep Grand Wagoneer

  • Max Towing Capacity: 9,810 L

A step up in premium design from the 2025 Jeep Wagoneer, the Grand Wagoneer is an elevated SUV for the discerning driver. With a 3.0L Hurricane Twin Turbo High-Output Inline 6 engine, it generates 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque; numbers you’d expect in a Ram truck. The tradeoff in luxury for capability is also very minor – the Grand Wagoneer can still tow nearly as much as the Wagoneer.

3. Ford Expedition

  • Max Towing Capacity: 9,600 L

The full-size 2025 Ford Expedition is a spacious family-focused SUV with some serious chops. Its capable 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine is the same you’d find in a Ford F-150 Tremor, generating 400 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque for a very impressive towing capability. The available heavy-duty towing package adds numerous features to make towing convenient and easy for you.

4. Toyota Sequoia

  • Max Towing Capacity: 9,520 L

Not only is the 2025 Toyota Sequoia an impressive SUV when it comes to towing, but it’s also a dedicated hybrid. The 3.5L Twin Turbo V6 hybrid engine under its hood is capable of outputting 427 horsepower and 583 lb-ft of torque, all while offering a super-economical combined fuel economy estimated at 11.7L/100km. If you need to tow, but don’t want to break the bank, the Sequoia may be an excellent choice.

5. Lexus GX

  • Max Towing Capacity: 9,096 L

You might not think of a luxurious Lexus SUV as a practical vehicle for towing, but the GX 550 is a potent all-wheel drive off-roader with some excellent towing capability. The 3.4L V6 engine under its hood can generate 349 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. Properly equipped, it can top out with 9,096 L of towing power.
