BMW 2er-Reihe Active/Gran Tourer F45/F46 225xe iPerformance Active Tourer Steptronic - Towing vehicle

Can the BMW 2er-Reihe Active/Gran Tourer also be used as a towing vehicle? In order to answer this issue the motor vehicle 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.


torque affects the BMW 2er-Reihe Active/Gran Tourer how much the trailer load affects acceleration. Torque is available at 385 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 motor vehicle distributes the power over all four wheels.

However, this deal does not yet include trailer coupling and must be ordered in addition.

Final assessment: Is this car suitable as a towing vehicle? Unfortunately, the BMW 2er-Reihe Active/Gran Tourer cannot be ordered with a trailer hitch, so it is also not possible to use it in trailer mode.
