Mercedes GLA 247 45 AMG 4MATIC+ SPEEDSHIFT DCT 8G - Towing vehicle

Can the Mercedes GLA also be used as a towing vehicle? 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.

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.
torque affects the Mercedes GLA how much the trailer load affects acceleration. 480 Nm. This much torque is available, which clearly means that even if you have charged a lot, it hardly affects acceleration. 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.

However, this offer does not yet include trailer hitch and must be additionally ordered.
