VW Crafter II 35 Kastenwagen Superhochdach lang plus 2.0 TDI BMT Trendline 4MOTION Automatik - Towing vehicle

Is the VW Crafter also good for towing trailers? In order to answer this topic 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 3000 kg, the VW Crafter is a real workhorse. For him, there is hardly anything that you can not pull, at most a full-grown sailboat.
For the VW Crafter gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. Torque is available at 410 Nm, which is already a decent value and guarantees that you won't have any problems getting off the mark as a rule. 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 motor vehicle distributes the power over all four wheels.

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

The whole is pulled by the strong 410 Nm Torque - that sounds like a lot, it is, the VW Crafter is a born towing vehicle. Horse trailers with one horse (possibly two) are no problem, also large (luxury) caravans or smaller excavators and other heavy equipment. Please note that you may need a driving license B96 or even BE / class 3 here.
