The maximum towing capacity of this cars 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.
torque affects the BMW 2er-Reihe Active/Gran Tourer how much the trailer load affects acceleration. Torque is available at 350 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.
