Mercedes CLA 118 Shooting Brake 45 S AMG 4MATIC SPEEDSHIFT DCT 8G - Towing vehicle

Can the Mercedes CLA 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.

The maximum towing capacity of this cars is given as 1500 kg and is thus quite sufficient for the "normal consumer". You can pull a small caravan with it, and also sometimes the moving trailer.
For the Mercedes CLA gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. 500 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 car.

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