Asked by Ken Dobbin
I was interested to hear an Isuzu MU-X would be able to tow a 2800kg-3000kg caravan, but what happens when it is facing headwinds or lots of steep hills such as in Tasmania? I have trouble comparing a four-cylinder against a six-cylinder engine, maybe showing my age of 66 years. We have a 2.7-litre diesel Ford Territory, which towed a 20-foot caravan around Tasmania for nine weeks towing — but I've been told it was possibly working almost to its maximum.
Answered by CarsGuide
8 Jun 2015Modern four-cylinder turbo engines, particularly diesels, are far more powerful and efficient than old-school sixes. We've had excellent reports on the towing ability of the MU-X but you would be best to judge how hard your Territory was working.
