Opel Grandland 1.Generation  1.6 DI Turbo Hybrid4 GS Line Automatik

You want to use the Opel Grandland 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.

The maximum towing capacity of this Automobiles is given as 1250 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 Opel Grandland gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. 520 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 car distributes the power over all four wheels.

However, this deal does not yet include trailer coupling and must be separately ordered.
