How Much Can the Lincoln Nautilus Tow?

The 2021 Lincoln Nautilus offers two powerful engine options, including a standard turbocharged 2.0L and an available twin-turbocharged 2.7L V6. Depending on a few different factors, these two engines offer different towing capacities. To tow, they must be properly equipped with the available Class II Trailer Tow Package, which includes:
- Hitch Receiver
- Trailer Sway Control
- Trailer Wiring Harness
The turbocharged 2.0L engine with standard front-wheel drive (FWD) can tow up to 1,500 pounds. However, with all-wheel drive (AWD), it can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
Cargo Utility Package
If you have the optional twin-turbocharged 2.7L V6 engine under the hood, you can tow up to 2,000 pounds with the Class II Trailer Tow Package. By adding the available Cargo Utility Package, you can also reach the maximum 3,500-pound towing capacity, which enables you to tow:
- A couple of personal watercrafts to the lake.
- A lightweight travel trailer to a wooded campsite.
- A utility trailer with a few snowmobiles to the slopes.
No matter what your annual vacation or weekend excursion entails, you can amplify the fun by bringing along over-sized toys like these with the Lincoln Nautilus. The optional Cargo Utility Package also includes a 110V/150W AC power outlet, so you can charge your laptop or smartphone to enjoy constant connectivity on every adventure.
