VW Grand California 1. Generation 680 4,0t 2.0 TDI Dune 4MOTION Automatik

You want to use the VW Grand California also as a towing vehicle for trailers? 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.


The torque is at the VW Grand California decisive for acceleration even under load - the more torque the better!

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

Final assessment: Is this car suitable as a towing vehicle? Unfortunately, the VW Grand California cannot be ordered with a trailer hitch, so it is also not possible to use it in trailer mode.
