Volvo XC40 1.Generation  T4 R Design AWD Geartronic

Can the Volvo XC40 also be used as a towing vehicle? In order to answer this issue many different aspects, 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 automobile does not have to hide. So you can also pull a horse trailer or a medium-sized caravan.
torque affects the Volvo XC40 how much the trailer load affects acceleration. Torque is available at 300 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 vehicle.

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

Evaluation - is the Volvo XC40 suitable as a towing vehicle?: The motor vehicle can pull trailers with up to 2000 kg own weight . It can thereby be set to a maximum torque of 300 Nm access. The Volvo XC40 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.
