Choosing the right towing vehicle for you
Choosing the right towing vehicle for you can be a time-consuming process, which is why we have highlighted our top recommendations below.
To make life easier, we've placed the best towing vehicles in three categories:
- Hatchback
- Executive
- Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV)
We've done this because we want to ensure you're choosing the right type of car for your needs. For example, SUVs can usually tow more than a Hatchback, making them ideal if you own a large caravan.
On the flipside, if it's a small trailer you're towing, then a Hatchback is more suitable.
Best hatchbacks for towing
Ford Focus
The Focus is a good-looking car that has a quality interior design, a large boot and affordable running costs.
BMW 1 Series
It's easy to recommend a 1 Series. They're fun to drive, spacious inside and they're great for travelling in over long distances.
Vauxhall Astra
We'd recommend the Astra if you want a car that's easy to drive, well-equipped and loaded with useful safety features.
Volkswagen Golf
The Golf is a popular choice because it feels like a more expensive car than it is, yet is still affordable to run.
Best executive cars for towing
BMW 5 Series
The 5 Series is fun to drive and is available with a choice of powerful engines, which is why we'd recommend one if you enjoy driving.
Skoda Octavia
The Octavia is well made and affordable to run thanks to its array of diesel engines, making it ideal for long distances.
Vauxhall Insignia
You'll like the Insignia if you want a car that is well-equipped, spacious inside and affordable to own.

Refined, easy to drive and spacious, the Passat is what we would call "a good all-rounder".

The Duster has a spacious interior and affordable running costs, making it a great value option.
Land Rover Discovery Sport
Engineered to tackle any terrain in luxury, the Discovery Sport is the versatile choice.
