![]() You will have to look on the vehicle itself to get these two metrics, as they were not listed in any of the resources I used to gather the information for this article. The gross vehicle weight rating and gross axle weight ratings were not found in the chart, however, they were listed somewhere else. GCWR, GVWR & GAWRs: The gross combined weight ratings were provided in the charts that I have listed at the top of this article, between the axle ratios and the maximum trailer weight ratings and are specified for both 4-wheel drive and front-wheel drive models. Axle ratio - The axle ratio your vehicle is equipped with was also something you should know, but you did not really need to plug this information into the chart, as there were other variables that were more important.Automatic or manual transmission - You will also need to specify whether your vehicle has an automatic transmission or a manual transmission and this should be pretty apparent to most people.Front-wheel drive or four-wheel drive - You will also need to know why do you have a front-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive model and this will be apparent because four-wheel drive models will have a button or gear shifter that you will need to use to engage the vehicle in 4-wheel drive.The engine you had equipped - You will also need to know the engine that you had equipped and in this case the two choices were either a 2.3 liter engine or a 3.0 liter engine, one being a four-cylinder engine and the other being a 6-cylinder engine.Standard or Hybrid model - Standard models use a gasoline powered engine, whereas hybrid models use a combination of gasoline power, along with electric power. ![]() ![]() The limited models had the 3.0 liter engine offered as standard equipment, so it had the larger 3,500 pound rating, but remember, this was only available if you had the optional trailer package that was needed. If we look at the data, we can see that both of the XLS models had a maximum trailer weight rating of 1,500 pounds and the XLT trim levels had a range between 1,500-3,500 pounds. Overall Capacity: The overall towing capacity for the 2010 Ford Escape ranged from 1,000-3,500 pounds and was mainly dependent upon two different variables which was the engine that you had equipped in your vehicle and whether you had a hybrid model or a standard model.Ĭapacity By Trim Levels: I wanted to break down the data by the trim level and when I went to research the data, I found out that certain trim levels had certain engine options available to them and that's how I got the data that you see listed below.
