VW Tiguan II R 4MOTION DSG - Towing vehicle

Can the VW Tiguan also be used as a towing vehicle? In order to answer this issue the automobile 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 2200 kg, this automobile does not have to hide. So you can also pull a horse trailer or a medium-sized caravan.
For the VW Tiguan gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. Torque is available at 420 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.

Evaluation - is the VW Tiguan suitable as a towing vehicle?: The automobile has a maximum towing capacity of 2200 kg . The feed is provided by the torque of 420 Nm. The VW Tiguan 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.
