Is it really only 1500 lb towing capacity for a 2018? Seems a little low for an SUV with a V6 engine and a transmission that can handle 5,000lb even without a towing package.

Lots of this could be linked to the automatic transmission cooling system. I'd put an aftermaket air coolling system on it if you decide to pull a trailer.
