More about the new Audi E-Tron
The standard e-tron is also kitted out with driver assistance technology, a 360-degree parking sensor, a rear-view camera and lane departure warning. These clever pieces of technology are perfect features for long distance towing, especially handy for motorway driving.
Poor visibility when towing is not an option with the Audi e-tron, its clever technology includes the new virtual mirrors. After what feels like a lifetime of using wing mirrors to check your rear view, the e-tron has really shaken things up with virtual mirrors that relay your rear view on the cockpit.
Long gone are the days of fiddling with the wing mirrors to get the perfect position, with a few tweaks on the screen you can perfect your perfect view. What makes these mirrors perfect for towing is, the modern technology automatically adjusts the cameras when reversing or manoeuvring. No more craning your neck out the window to make sure you're missing objects.
What is the Audi E-Tron's Towing Capacity?
The E-tron boasts a generous 1800kg towing weight, meaning that there is very little that would be off limits when it comes to deciding what to tow. However, like most vehicles the e-tron comes with various trims and packages so it is always best to check your vin plate for an accurate towing weight, check out our vin plate advice page to help work out the towing capacity.
Which Towbar is best for my Audi E-Tron?
We offer both the fixed flange towbar and detachable towbar for the Audi e-tron. The fixed flange towbar is perfect for those who wish to tow a bolt on cycle carrier and a caravan at the same time. Whereas the detachable towbar is not only removable, making the towbar almost invisible once removed, but also compatible with our full Thule cycle carrier range. We always recommend the detachable towbar for those vehicles with parking sensors, as there is always a risk of interference from the towbar.
Will my E-Tron need a bumper cut?
The bumper cut needed on the e-tron is typically nonvisible, this means a cut will be made to the undertray of the vehicle but cannot be seen when looking face on. Some models may already have a factory bumper cut; however, this is dependent on the trim style.
With so many different trims available for the e-tron it is always best to contact our customer services for an accurate bumper cut measurement for your vehicle.
