2019 Buick Envision towing capacity
The 2019 Buick Envision is published in 7 configurations, with tow ratings ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 lb depending on cab, bed, drivetrain, and hitch class. The peak figure (1,500 lb) sits in very light towing only.
The table below lists every trim of the 2019 Buick Envision with the engine, drivetrain, axle ratio, horsepower, torque, GVWR, curb weight, and payload that go with that trim's headline tow rating. Manufacturers often publish more than one tow figure per truck — a conventional bumper-hitch rating, a weight-distributing rating, and a gooseneck or fifth-wheel rating — so the highest number here is the maximum across all hitch classes the source carries for the trim.

How to interpret the headline tow figure
Tow ratings at this level are normally achievable with a conventional Class II or Class III receiver hitch. Always verify your vehicle has the manufacturer's tow package installed if you intend to tow at the upper end of the rating, and inspect the door-jamb sticker for the actual maximum permitted on your specific configuration.
How this year compares to 2018
The 2018 Buick Envision carried a maximum tow rating of 1,500 lb. The 2019 model carries the same headline figure — manufacturers usually leave the rating alone year-over-year unless there's a powertrain or hitch change.
