Ford S-MAX II  2.0 EcoBlue Titanium Allrad

You want to use the Ford S-MAX also as a towing vehicle for trailers? 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.

With a maximum towing capacity of 2000 kg, this motor vehicle does not have to hide. So you can also pull a horse trailer or a medium-sized caravan.
torque affects the Ford S-MAX how much the trailer load affects acceleration. Torque is available at 370 Nm, which is already a decent value and guarantees that you won't have any problems getting off the mark as a rule. If the car is particularly heavy, all-wheel drive becomes more important. It is installed in this car.

However, this offer does not yet include trailer coupling and must be added to this.

Evaluation - is the Ford S-MAX suitable as a towing vehicle?: The car pulls ordinary 2000 kg . The feed is provided by the torque of 370 Nm. The Ford S-MAX 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.
