Is a VW Golf VIII Variant 2.0 TSI Style 4MOTION DSG a good towing vehicle?

VW Golf VIII  Variant 2.0 TSI Style 4MOTION DSG

Is the VW Golf also good for towing 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 maximum towing capacity of 1700 kg, this automobile does not have to hide. So you can also pull a horse trailer or a medium-sized caravan.
The torque is at the VW Golf decisive for acceleration even under load - the more torque the better!

. Torque is available at 320 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 car distributes the power over all four wheels.

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