Ford Galaxy Towing Capacity & Weight

Gary White   Author: Gary White


The front-wheel drive Ford Galaxy is no longer in production but was availeable with two EcoBoost petrol engines, a 1.5L (160hp) and a 2.0L (240hp). There are also four different 2.0 TDCi diesel engines which vary in power range from 120hp to 210hp.

Depending on the model and performance the towing capacity of the Ford Galaxy can vary. It also differs depending on whether you have the six-speed manual, automatic or double-clutch transmissions. If you are planning on towing off road and want the 4x4 all-wheel drive option you have to opt for the 2.0L diesel with 150hp and a six-speed gearbox. The modern EcoBoost and TDCi engines with a spread of 120 to 240 hp ensure very good towing performance. At best, the 120hp base diesel and the 150 hpbase petrol engine can sometimes seem a bit tired when the Galaxy is pulling a caravan or trailer.

Everyday fuel consumption of 7 - 10 litres for petrol engines and 6 to 9 litres for diesels can be expected. Given the large loading and payload volume and the ability to transport up to 7 people, it's not surprising that the the Galaxy has a weight of around 1.7 to 1.9 tons. Even the 240 hp petrol engine is no slouch with around eight to ten litres per 100 kilometers. Depending on the engine, a six-speed automatic converter or a six-speed dual-clutch transmission is available as an option.

Is The Ford Galaxy A Good Tow Car?

Overall, the Galaxy is quite stable and is a good tow car, when pulling a caravan it is well-controlled but done have a bit of a tendency to understeer. This means that the good driving performance can also be used to pull a smaller horse trailer.

How Much Can a Ford Galaxy Tow?

For those models of Ford Galaxy where towing is allowed, we have detailed the Ford Galaxy towing capacity for a braked trailer (this is when the trailer being towed has its own breaking system). To ensure you are both safe and legal it is really important that you check the Ford Galaxy towing weight limit for the car.



As well as providing the braked towing capacity for your Ford Galaxy, where data is available we also have also listed the Ford Galaxy's unbraked towing capacity.

Here is a full list of the Unbraked and Braked Towing Capacity for the Ford Galaxy. If you cannot find the Ford Galaxy you are looking for please drop us a email and we will add this to the list.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the towing weights provided on this website are accurate, we always recommend checking the vehicle log book (V5) for the official towing capacity. We accept no responsibility if the towing weights provided on this website are incorrect.
