VW Touareg III 3.0 V6 TDI SCR 4MOTION Tiptronic - Towing vehicle

Can the VW Touareg also be used as a towing vehicle? 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.

With this motor vehicle, thanks to the maximum towing capacity of 3500 kg, you can tow virtually anything that wants to be towed privately (caravan, horse trailer, boat) or professionally (larger machines, heavy material).
torque affects the VW Touareg how much the trailer load affects acceleration. This automobile is a real torque monster with 600 Nm. This workhorse also pulls large loads away from you without any problems. 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 automobile 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.
