Its often a popular discussion point. I have always had a diesel car since getting our first caravan in 2006, generally 2ltr Auto. In 2021 we downsized to smaller van Xplore 304 at 1043kg MPLTM. The 2 ltr tows with no issue. Although for everyday use I could do with a smaller engine. Does anyone tow with Petrol, if so how do you do with the generally low Torque, as they always seem low unlike the diesel cars. Does any tow with a 1.5 or 1.6 Diesel? My partner has a 1.5 DCI Renault Megane, which NTA says is compatible. Just a concern on Hill starts for its 177 TORQUE!!
