2026 Sahara - Max Tow

[KennyDee]

Starting to see the Sahara hit some dealer lots. Does anyone have any info on the towing capacity. Was a rumor it might have a max tow package.

Thank you

I would assume you have already looked at the Jeep website to build one with your desired options. It is of course subject to change but all I see there for the Sahara is the Trailer Towing package. That is not to be confused with the Max Towing package. The Trailer Towing package just includes the hitch, 4/7 plug connectors and I guess a larger alternator and cooling fan. At least that's what they included in the past. But again, that package does not change the actual towing capacity of the vehicle. It just provides the stuff you need to tow.

Yeah it does. It raises it to 6k lbs.

Well, then I stand corrected. In the past, the towing packages were generally there for convenience but not for changes to capacities.

Thank you for the update.

It turned out this never happen in 2026. Max Tow trims did not get any love this year from Jeep. Shame

I'm starting a new thread on this but now it says on the "official" Jeep website and the "Build and Price" thing that the maximum towing for the Sport is 7,700 lbs. and the maximum towing for the Sport S is 6,000 lbs. when you click on the model comparisons.

I know this is a joke and the marketing people have no clue on what is what but this is ridiculous.

They are like most salesmen who don't have a clue when it comes to Jeeps. Anyway sport s is rated at 7700lbs. Payload on sport s usually takes a slight dip do the 100lbs added for spray in liner and another hundred for the premium audio lol Oh the 300lbs for Hardtop but on the bright side we save 40lbs on the slighter smaller key fob. Nah all jokes a side, The 2027 order banks are open so i believe the websites are updating
