The best 2022 Mercedes-Benz vehicles for towing

Spring has finally arrived, and that means that it's time to get our boat to the lake or to take our camper to the mountains. For many Mercedes-Benz owners, that means that it is now time to attach the hitch on their Mercedes-Benz vehicle and prepare to hit the road. That said, you may be looking to replace your current vehicle, or you may have just purchased a boat or camper and are looking for a luxury vehicle that will be able to bring it with you on your next vacation. If you are in that situation and you have your eyes set on a Mercedes-Benz, we thought we would take a look at the models that offer the best towing capability and that are the best suited for towing duties.

 

The first thing you should know is that when it comes to towing with a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, you will need to look at the luxury SUV lineup that it offers. There are no Mercedes-Benz cars that are recommended for towing. Moreover, it is not recommended that you tow with a Mercedes-Benz GLA or GLB. On the other hand, the Mercedes-Benz GLC offers impressive capability.

 

2022 Mercedes-Benz GLC

 

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLC offers an impressive 3,500 pounds of towing capacity. The GLC is one of the best compact luxury SUVs when it comes to towing.

 

2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE

 

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLE offers an impressive 7,720 pounds of towing capacity. This gives the GLE the ability to tow heavy loads with confidence, ensuring that you can get that boat to the lake with ease. Even the entry-level GLE with its turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine offers 5,950 pounds of towing capacity. That should be more than enough for many buyers.

 

2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS

 

The Mercedes-Benz GLS is an impressive three-row ultra-premium SUV that is as refined on the road as it is capable. Powered by an impressive turbocharged six-cylinder engine, the 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLS can tow up to 7,720 pounds.

 

2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class

 

The 2022 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a legend of the automotive industry. It is one of the most desirable SUVs offered on the market today and it is also one of the most capable and powerful utility vehicles you can buy. The G-Class can go anywhere you want and it also can tow anything you need with its 7,720-pound threshold.

 

If you are planning to tow with a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, the models above will surely exceed your expectations. Know that if you can find a pre-owned model above, they offer the same capability. Moreover, we would recommend that you install a genuine Mercedes-Benz hitch on your vehicle prior to towing. You can find a hitch from a third-party supplier, but only a Mercedes-Benz genuine hitch was designed specifically for your Mercedes-Benz vehicle and preserves its capability, safety, reliability, and performance when towing.
