Featuring 145 pound-feet of torque, the 2016 Subaru Crosstrek can pull around 1,500 pounds. The specified limit for tongue weight is 150 pounds. Towing capacity refers to the maximum weight your vehicle can safely tow while pulling a trailer. It is crucial to respect this limit to avoid putting excessive strain on your engine and transmission, causing brakes to wear out faster, damaging tires, and potentially distorting the chassis. Ignoring these limits could result in catastrophic failures while driving, leading to property damage or severe injuries.
