A vehicular trailer beam estimation system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle equipped with a trailer hitch. With a trailer hitched at the trailer hitch of the vehicle, the camera views at least a portion of the trailer hitched to the vehicle. The system, responsive at least in part to processing by an image processor of image data captured by the camera, determines a trailer angle of the trailer relative to the vehicle. During a driving maneuver, the system tracks trailering parameters, which include (i) the trailer angle, (ii) steering angle of the vehicle and (iii) speed of the vehicle. The system determines beam length of the trailer based at least in part on (i) the trailering parameters, (ii) the vehicle's wheelbase and (iii) hitch length of the trailer hitch of the vehicle.
