You want to use the VW Touareg also as a towing vehicle for trailers? In order to answer this topic many different aspects, such as whether a trailer hitch (AHK) is available at all, the torque, and the maximum towing capacity.

With this automobile, 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 the car is particularly heavy, all-wheel drive becomes more important. It is installed in this car.

However, this offer does not yet include trailer hitch and must be added to this.
