Obey country-specific requirements about trailer towing and trailer hitches.
Volkswagen does not recommend installing a trailer hitch on your vehicle. Your Volkswagen was
mainly designed for carrying passengers. If you plan to tow a trailer, please remember your vehicle will
be performing a job for which it was not primarily intended. The additional load will affect durability,
handling, fuel economy, and performance, and may require the vehicle to be serviced more often.
Trailer towing not only places more stress on the vehicle, it calls for more concentration from the
driver. Always follow the operating and driving instructions given, and use common sense.
Under winter conditions, install winter tires on the vehicle and the trailer.
Important information for Golf R models
For technical reasons, the vehicle body structure is not designed for the installation of a trailer hitch.
Never install a trailer hitch on Golf R models. Installing a trailer hitch will do considerable damage
to the vehicle ⇒ .
Tongue weight
The maximum permissible trailer tongue weight exerted on the ball mount must not exceed 200 lbs
(91 kg).
