    Frequently Asked Questions

    Kia offers towing capacities from 1,300kg to 2,500kg. Their SUV and estate models tend to offer the highest limits. Always check by registration for your exact variant.

    Towing limits vary by engine, transmission, and factory options. Use our towing calculator with your registration number for verified data, or check the VIN plate inside your driver's door.

    It depends on the model and variant. Twin-axle caravans typically weigh 1,400-1,800 kg, so you'll need a Kia with a braked towing limit above that weight. Check the 85% rule as well. Your caravan's MTPLM should ideally be no more than 85% of your car's kerbweight.

    Many modern Kia models offer factory-fit or dealer-fit detachable towbars. Check with your Kia dealer or refer to the options list for your specific model year.
