The 2013 Buick Encore is capable of towing up to 1,600 lbs, provided it is equipped with the correct hitch. With its 1.4L four-cylinder engine, which is capable of generating 138 horsepower, the car is fairly powerful and adept at towing. As a general rule of thumb, the tongue capacity of a car is almost always equal to ten percent of the cars pulling capacity. As a result, the 2013 Encores tongue capacity falls at 160 lbs. Trailer weight usually refers to the weight that can be towed by the car entirely. The tongue capacity, on the other hand, is the weight that transfers onto the tongue of the towing system in the car.
