Land Rover Defender II 90 P400 XS AWD Automatik - Towing vehicle

Is the Land Rover Defender also good for towing trailers? In order to answer this issue 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 this vehicle, thanks to the maximum towing capacity of 3500 kg, you can tow virtually anything that wants to be towed privately (caravan, horse trailer, boat) or professionally (larger machines, heavy material).
For the Land Rover Defender gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. 550 Nm. This much torque is available, which clearly means that even if you have charged a lot, it hardly affects acceleration. If the car is particularly heavy, all-wheel drive becomes more important. It is installed in this vehicle.

The basic prerequisite - the trailer hitch - is given, because a corresponding device is already included in this deal.

Evaluation - is the Land Rover Defender suitable as a towing vehicle?: The vehicle draws enormous 3500 kg . He can rely on strong 550 Nm access torque - that sounds like a lot, it is, the Land Rover Defender is a born towing vehicle. Horse trailers with one horse (possibly two) are no problem, also large (luxury) caravans or smaller excavators and other heavy equipment. Please note that you may need a driving license B96 or even BE / class 3 here.
