What trailer can a 2015 4 cy Subaru Outback tow?

Asked by Lynda Jun 02, 2020 at 08:31 AM about the 2015 Subaru Outback 2.5i Limited

Question type: General

We have a Subaru Outback 2015 4 cylinder. Can we tow a Whiteriver Retro
157 trailer (2500 lb)? Would this do damage to the transmission?

1 Answer

That is near the limit of what you can tow (2700). By the time you add in all your stuff (and passengers) you will be overweight. Overloading your transmission can ruin it.
