Check out some of our Volkswagen Tayron Trustpilot reviews...
Can a towbar be fitted to a Volkswagen Tayron?
Yes. Towbar Express can supply and fit a towbar to suitable Volkswagen Tayron models. The correct towbar depends on the exact specification of the vehicle, so we will check your vehicle details before fitting to ensure the correct towbar and electrics are selected.
What towbar options are available for the Volkswagen Tayron?
Towbar Express offers a detachable swan neck towbar for the Volkswagen Tayron.
The detachable swan neck provides a discreet towing solution, allowing the towbar neck to be removed when it is not required. This means there is no towball permanently positioned behind the vehicle between uses.
Which towbar is best for my Volkswagen Tayron?
The detachable swan neck towbar is the option available from Towbar Express for the Volkswagen Tayron. It is particularly suitable if you want the convenience of a towbar without having the towball permanently fitted to the rear of the vehicle.
When towing or carrying compatible towbar-mounted equipment, the towbar neck can be securely attached and then removed again when it is no longer required.
What is the towbar rated to on a Volkswagen Tayron?
The maximum towbar rating depends on the exact Volkswagen Tayron and towbar application. The towbar has its own maximum towing weight and vertical-load limit, which must be considered alongside the limits specified for the vehicle itself.
A higher-rated towbar does not increase the amount that the Volkswagen Tayron is permitted to tow. The vehicle, towbar and towing equipment must all remain within their respective limits, with the lowest applicable limit always being followed. You can find more information in our guide to maximum towing weights.
How do I check how much my Volkswagen Tayron can tow?
The VIN plate will normally show the vehicle's maximum permitted laden weight (Gross Vehicle Weight) followed by its maximum combined vehicle and trailer weight (Gross Train Weight). Subtracting the first figure from the second shows the trailer weight available when the vehicle itself is loaded to its maximum permitted weight.
The vehicle manufacturer's specified towing limit should also be checked, as the vehicle, trailer, towbar and combined train weight must all remain within their respective limits. The permitted towing weight can vary according to the engine, transmission, drivetrain and exact Volkswagen Tayron specification. You can find more information in our maximum towing weight guide.
Does my Volkswagen Tayron need a bumper cut?
Yes. Fitting a towbar to the Volkswagen Tayron requires a non-visible bumper cut to the undertray.
Will the bumper cut be visible on my Volkswagen Tayron?
No. The required cut is made to the underside of the vehicle and is non-visible once the towbar has been fitted.
What electrics do you fit to a Volkswagen Tayron?
We fit vehicle-specific 13-pin electrics to the Volkswagen Tayron. These provide the electrical connection between your Tayron and your trailer, caravan or compatible cycle carrier, allowing the lights to work correctly.
You can find out more in our guide to towing electrics.
Will a towbar affect my Volkswagen Tayron parking sensors?
The detachable swan neck towbar can be removed when it is not required, leaving no towball permanently positioned behind the Volkswagen Tayron. This can help avoid the towball being detected by the rear parking sensors when the towbar is not in use.
Is the Volkswagen Tayron towbar compatible with AL-KO stabilisers?
Compatibility depends on the exact towbar and towing equipment being used. Towbar Express will confirm whether the selected Volkswagen Tayron towbar is suitable for your intended towing equipment before fitting.
Can you fit a towbar to my Volkswagen Tayron at home?
Yes. Towbar Express offers mobile towbar fitting, so our engineer can fit your Volkswagen Tayron towbar at your home or workplace.
