Whatever it is that you need to tow – a caravan, horsebox… even a speedboat – the car you’re doing it with needs to give you a sense of assurance. It should have plenty of pulling power, ideally four-wheel drive, substantial maximum towing capacity, and a suite of safety systems like trailer stability assistance. The Volvo XC60 has all these things, which is why you’ve chosen it as the 2025 Best Car for Towing.
Taking the award ahead of the great value Skoda Kodiaq and the ever popular Tesla Model Y, the Volvo is a huge hit among owners. "The whole ‘being’ of the car makes you feel like being wrapped up in a fluffy duvet, all warm, soft and comfortable,” said one delighted owner. Another praised its "factory fitted tow bar with a torquey diesel hybrid engine, [which] gives us all we could ever need for towing." A worthy winner, then. Well done, Volvo.
