VW up! 1.Generation cross 1.0 TSI - Towing vehicle

Can the VW up! 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.


The torque is at the VW up! decisive for acceleration even under load - the more torque the better!

. With 160 Nm, it does not have much torque. If you charge a lot, you have to be patient during acceleration.

However, this deal does not yet include trailer coupling and must be added to this.

Final assessment: Is this car suitable as a towing vehicle? Unfortunately, the VW up! cannot be ordered with a trailer hitch, so it is also not possible to use it in trailer mode.
