Understanding Essential Towing Fundamentals
At Sarasota Ford, we’re excited to share our knowledge about the Ford Bronco towing capabilities. Before diving into specifics, let’s explore key towing concepts. These concepts impact your SUV towing ratings and off-road towing capability.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
GVWR is the maximum weight your Ford Bronco can safely carry. This includes passengers, cargo, and the vehicle itself. Knowing this rating is crucial for safe operation on and off the road.
Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR)
GCWR is the total allowed weight of your loaded Bronco and attached trailer. This figure is essential when considering your Ford Bronco towing capacity. For example, the 2025 Ford Explorer’s GCWR ranges from 10,000 to 10,800 pounds, depending on the engine and drivetrain configuration.
Tongue Weight and Curb Weight
Tongue weight, typically 10-15% of the trailer’s total weight, affects your vehicle’s stability while towing. The 2025 Bronco Raptor, with its impressive curb weight of 5,764 pounds, offers excellent stability for towing up to 4,500 pounds. Understanding these factors is key to maximizing your Bronco’s powertrain options and towing performance.
