2022 Nissan Armada

The Armada is Nissan’s full-size SUV and features the same engine as the Titan and Titan XD: 5.6-liter DOHC 32-valve V-8. In the Armada, though, Nissan pairs the engine platform to a 7-speed automatic transmission with a manual shift mode and Downshift Rev Matching. The Armada generates about 400 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, just like the Titan and Titan XD. This power capability gives the Armada its maximum towing capacity of 8,500 pounds.

2022 Nissan Rogue

Coming in just under the Murano in towing capacity, the Rogue can still make use of its 2.5-liter DOHC 16-valve inline-four-cylinder engine. Nissan pairs this platform with the Xtronic CVT with manual mode, featuring electronic and paddle shifters. The Rogue’s ability to generate 181 horsepower and 181 pound-feet of torque gives you the power you need to haul small trailers and cargo at a maximum towing capacity of 1,350 pounds.

What Contributes to Towing Capacity?

Towing capacity refers to the total amount of weight you can pull safely on a trailer when hitched to your truck or SUV. The towing capacity is the difference between your vehicle’s curb weight and the gross combined vehicle weight, which is the maximum weight of your vehicle when it’s fully loaded and attached to a trailer. Towing capacity differs from payload capacity, which refers to the maximum weight a vehicle can carry on top of its axles.

Several weight calculations go into the manufacturer’s tow capacity rating of your vehicle, and engine size and power can also play a role in how much weight you can safely tow. You can also increase your vehicle’s towing capacity with upgrades to the components that help your vehicle support heavier loads.
