Although one model year removed from a mid-cycle refresh, the 2024 Chevy Blazer does feature a select few updates and changes for the new model year. Today, we’re taking a closer look at Chevy Blazer towing capacities for the 2024 model.
Before jumping right in, here’s a quick breakdown of the available drivetrain configurations for the 2024 Blazer. The turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY gasoline engine is equipped as standard fare on 2LT, 3LT and Premier trim levels, and is rated at 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, standard on the RS trim and available as an option on the 3LT and Premier trim levels, is rated at 308 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. Both powerplants are mated to the GM nine-speed automatic transmission. Meanwhile, FWD is standard and AWD is optional.
With all of that cleared up, here’s the full list of 2024 Chevy Blazer towing capacities:

As can be seen in the table above, Blazer towing capacity varies widely depending on the drivetrain equipped. Notably, the 2.0L LSY engine with FWD boasts the lowest towing capacity at 1,500 pounds, while the 3.6L LGX engine with AWD features a towing capacity of 4,500 pounds. Interestingly, the optional Trailering Equipment Package (RPO code V92), which includes the likes of a four-wire harness and a four-pin sealed connector, can be equipped on both FWD and AWD models, and with both engine options.
It’s worth noting that towing capacities are unchanged from the 2023 Blazer.
As a reminder, the Chevy Blazer rides on the GM C1 platform. Production of the 2024 Blazer officially kicked off on July 10th, 2023 at the GM Ramos Arizpe plant in Mexico.

Yes, 4500 lb. towing on my ’23 RS but NO BRAKE CONTROLLER!!! You dropped the ball on that oneGM!
You can add a trailer brake controller if you wish.
The RS comes with a “tow package”! A “tow package” should be complete, ie:”Package”, not partial package.
So you can tow your lawn tractor or similar.
That is a very lame comment. What do you mean by it?
sorry, I just assumed anyone that has followed anything to do with EVs would know how towing negatively effects the range of said vehicle.. but yeah, brake controller on because that’s the real issue with EVs!
Did you even read the article? This is an ICE Blazer, not an EV. hence the 2.0L LSY and 3.6L LGX ENGINES in the chart.
