VW Touareg III  3.0 V6 TFSI OPF 4MOTION Tiptronic

You want to use the VW Touareg also as a towing vehicle for trailers? In order to answer this issue the motor vehicle 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 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).
The torque is at the VW Touareg decisive for acceleration even under load - the more torque the better!

. 450 Nm. This much torque is available, which clearly means that even if you have charged a lot, it hardly affects acceleration. The four-wheel drive ensures that the traction is not lost even on rough terrain.

However, this deal does not yet include trailer coupling and must be ordered in addition.

Evaluation - is the VW Touareg suitable as a towing vehicle?: The automobile draws enormous 3500 kg . The whole is pulled by the strong 450 Nm 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.
