Audi A3 8Y Limousine 40 TFSI advanced quattro S tronic - Towing vehicle

Is the Audi A3 also good for towing trailers? In order to answer this issue the car must be considered from all points of view, such as whether a trailer hitch (AHK) is available at all, the torque, and the maximum towing capacity.

The maximum towing capacity of this Automobiles is given as 1600 kg and is thus quite sufficient for the "normal consumer". You can pull a small caravan with it, and also sometimes the moving trailer.
For the Audi A3 gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. Torque is available at 320 Nm, which is already a decent value and guarantees that you won't have any problems getting off the mark as a rule. If you want to take the trailer off-road, all-wheel drive is absolutely essential. On surfaces where you would otherwise have no problems, the additional weight of the trailer quickly becomes noticeable and a real problem. It's a good thing that this car distributes the power over all four wheels.

However, this offer does not yet include trailer hitch and must be ordered in addition.
