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

Is the VW Touareg also good for towing trailers? In order to answer this question the car 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 this car, 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).
For the VW Touareg gthe torque indicates how well it can handle heavy loads - the rule here is: a lot helps a lot.. 500 Nm. This much torque is available, which clearly means that even if you have charged a lot, it hardly affects acceleration. 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.

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

Evaluation - is the VW Touareg suitable as a towing vehicle?: The car has an enormous maximum towing capacity of 3500 kg . He can rely on strong 500 Nm access torque - that sounds like a lot, it is, the VW Touareg 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.
