pg. 78 Trailer towing
When preparing for trailer towing, observe the following:
Maximum trailer weight recommended by Volvo is:
● Trailers without brakes: 1000 lbs (455 kg)
● Trailers with brakes: 2000 lbs (908 kg),
● Max tongue load:
(w/o brakes) 110 lbs (50 kg)
(with brakes) 165 lbs (75 kg)
Observe the legal requirements of the state/province in which the vehicles are registered.
All Volvo models are equipped with energy-absorbing shock-mounted bumpers. Trailer hitch
installation should not interfere with the proper operation of this bumper system.
● Gradients over 12% or at heights over 3000ft (1000 m).
Deduct 220 lbs (100 kg) from the maximum permitted trailer weight for each additional 1500 ft (500 m)
or each additional 1% gradient.
● Do not attempt to drive gradients steeper than 15% with a trailer. The load on the powered wheels/
front wheels is then so low that they may slip and bring the car to a standstill. Do not rely on the
handbrake alone to hold the car stationary when it has a trailer attached: the wheels may slide along the
ground. Chock the wheels with blocks or stones.
● Volvo recommends the use of Volvo trailer hitches which are specially designed for the car. For
