Can the Ford EcoSport also be used as a towing vehicle? In order to answer this topic the automobile 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.

If you look at the maximum towing capacity of this motor vehicles of 900 kg, it quickly becomes clear - you can't tow much more than a small trailer or an ultra-light caravan with it.
For the Ford EcoSport gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. With 170 Nm, it does not have much torque. If you charge a lot, you have to be patient during acceleration.

To the hardware store and back is no problem, but you should not try to cross the Alps with a caravan. However, this particular offer is an immediately available vehicle that does not have a trailer hitch installed. It is therefore not suitable for use in trailer operation.
