Can I tow a Beauer 3X?
The vast majority of modern cars (and even EVs!) can tow a Beauer 3X model, thanks to their low weight (MiRO) of just 950kg!
If your vehicle has a braked towing allowance of 1,100kg or more, it should be suitable for towing a Beauer 3X. There are 3 MTPLM (max weight) options; 1,100kg, 1,200kg & 1,350kg, to suit different vehicles & holidaying styles. If your vehicle has adequate braked towing capacity, the 1,350kg MTPLM option provides a whopping 400kg of payload – more than enough for your accessories, equipment and sundry items.
