2023 GMC Canyon Towing Capacity

For the 2023 model year, the GMC Canyon receives a next-generation refresh. With an all-new AT4X off-road trim, a top-to-bottom redesign, and advanced re-engineering, this pickup truck is better than ever. What does the 2023 GMC Canyon refresh mean for towing power? The maximum towing capacity will still be 7,700 pounds, although there will be more variation across this year’s lineup.

2023 GMC Canyon Engine Specs

GMC hasn’t confirmed the engine options in the 2023 lineup, but it’s expected that the third generation will have one engine, a turbocharged GM 2.7L 4-cylinder.
