What's my Towing Capacity?
The Audi Q8 E-Tron has an estimated towing capacity of 1,800KG. This capacity would allow the driver to tow anything from a trailer to a medium-sized caravan. The best way to receive an accurate towing capacity for your vehicle is by checking your vin plate. This is usually located under the bonnet or on the passenger door sill. Our sales team will be happy to help if you need any further assistance.
Which Towbar is best for my Audi Q8 E-Tron?
There are two towbars available for the Audi Q8 E-Tron, a fixed swan neck towbar and a detachable swan neck towbar.
The fixed swan neck towbar has a thinner towbar neck to the fixed flange towbar and therefore is less likely to be detected by parking sensors; however, this is not guaranteed. This is a great option for those who prefer a sleeker-looking towbar but do not want to remove it after towing is completed. The fixed swan neck is compatible with all ALKO stabilisers and can be used with all cycle carriers that clamp on to the towball.
The detachable swan neck towbar is the perfect choice for those who want to protect their vehicle's aesthetic. Once towing is completed, the towbar neck can be removed, and the Towbar will appear practically invisible. The towbar neck is removed by unlocking the neck and using a twist and push action. The detachable towbar is also compatible with all ALKO stabilisers and all clamp on style cycle carriers.
Will it need a bumper cut?
When fitting either the fixed swan neck towbar or the detachable swan neck towbar to the Audi Q8 E-Tron a small non-visible bumper cut will be made to the undertray of the vehicle. This incision will only be visible when looking underneath the car and will be made as small and neat as possible. If your vehicle is not fitted with the standard bumper or has been altered this could lead to a larger bumper cut being made during the towbar installation. Our informative towbar engineers will begin the fitment by discussing any modifications that will be made during the fitment and will answer any questions that you may have regarding the towbar installation.
