Curb weights sourced from the NHTSA Canadian Vehicle Specifications database and recorded per body style, with fluids and a full fuel tank but no occupants or cargo.

What the weight leaves for towing

With a Diesel or 2.7L turbo with Trailering Package configuration, the 2026 Canyon is rated to pull 7,700 lbs — 1.5 times the 5,298 lbs the heaviest recorded truck weighs by itself, and 1.6 times the 4,716 lbs of the lightest.

That rating belongs to the Diesel or 2.7L turbo with Trailering Package build, not to every truck on this page: a Crewcab 4WD At4x starts 582 lbs deeper into the combined rating than a Crewcab 2WD before a trailer is coupled.

How the figure moved since 2015

The lightest 2015 record is 3,948 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 4,716 lbs — 768 lbs heavier (19.5%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 5,298 lbs against 4,480 lbs in 2015, a 818 lbs increase — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

What four-wheel drive costs in weight

Every body style recorded in both drive layouts gains exactly 256 lbs moving from two-wheel to four-wheel drive — about 5.4% of the two-wheel-drive figure.

Curb weight already includes a full tank

The published 21-gallon tank holds about 128 lbs of gasoline at 6.1 lb per gallon, and curb weight is measured with it full. Run it to empty and the Crewcab 4WD At4x is effectively a 5,170 lbs vehicle — 2.4% of the figure quoted above is fuel you will burn off.

Against the rest of the standard pickup trucks 4wd class

At 4,716 lbs the Canyon sits within 17 lbs of the 4,699 lbs median for the 16 vehicles EPA files under Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD, with 7 of them heavier.

Questions these figures answer

How much does a 2026 GMC Canyon weigh?

Between 4,716 lbs (Crewcab 2WD) and 5,298 lbs (Crewcab 4WD At4x), depending on the configuration.

Does the Canyon's curb weight count against its tow rating?

Yes. The 7,700 lbs maximum applies to the Diesel or 2.7L turbo with Trailering Package configuration, and the truck's own 4,716 lbs–5,298 lbs is already inside the combined weight the rating assumes. Heavier cab and drivetrain choices eat into what is left.

How much more does a 4x4 Canyon weigh?

256 lbs more than the same body style in two-wheel drive.
