Can electric vehicles tow a trailer?
Are electric cars able to tow caravans and trailers?
Asked on 7 December 2020 by Peter Turner

There are a few electric cars that are able to tow. These include the Polestar 2 (towing capacity 1500kg), Audi e-tron (1800kg) and Tesla Model X (2250kg). EVs have a number of advantages when it comes to towing: they're usually quite heavy (a good thing when towing) and provide instant torque. They also have good brakes with regenerative braking helping to slow down, which will help keep a trailer or caravan under control.

I have a small caravan, 1200kg max. I’m looking at changing my Nissan X-Trail to an all-electric. Would you advise I hang on for a bit or what EV would you recommend for towing it?

I'm looking for an electric car that can tow a small trailer for gardening. I have a diesel for distance and can use that for towing but would like to try and reduce the families CO2.

Wonderfully classy inside, roomier than most (not all) rivals, very civilised on the road with an 248 mile range.
