Volvo XC90 2.Generation  D5 ECO Inscription AWD Geartronic

You want to use the Volvo XC90 also as a towing vehicle for trailers? 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.

With a towing capacity of 2700 kg, the Volvo XC90 is a real workhorse. For him, there is hardly anything that you can not pull, at most a full-grown sailboat.
For the Volvo XC90 gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. 480 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 motor vehicle.

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

Evaluation - is the Volvo XC90 suitable as a towing vehicle?: The car pulls ordinary 2700 kg . The feed is provided by the torque of 480 Nm. The Volvo XC90 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.
