Can the BMW 5er-Reihe also be used as a towing vehicle? In order to answer this question 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.
With a maximum towing capacity of 2000 kg, this automobile does not have to hide. So you can also pull a horse trailer or a medium-sized caravan.
The torque is at the BMW 5er-Reihe decisive for acceleration even under load - the more torque the better!. This automobile is a real torque monster with 650 Nm. This workhorse also pulls large loads away from you without any problems. 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 automobile distributes the power over all four wheels.
The basic prerequisite - a trailer hitch - is given, because a corresponding device is already included in this deal.
Evaluation - is the BMW 5er-Reihe suitable as a towing vehicle?: The car can pull trailers with up to 2000 kg own weight . It can thereby be set to a maximum torque of 650 Nm access. The BMW 5er-Reihe is therefore very suitable for just about all typical towing loads in the private sector. Horse trailers with one horse (or two if necessary) are no problem. Please note that you may need a driver's license B96 or even BE / class 3 here.
