What are the best electric cars for towing?
I am planning to replace my Land Rover Freelander 2 with a pure electric car. The car must have a towbar. I can't find any current pure electric models that allow this. Will this be the case in the future?

Take a look at the upcoming Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6. Both are electric crossover SUVs that can officially tow a braked trailer weighing up to 1600kg. Otherwise, pricier electric SUVs like the Tesla Model X, Audi e-tron and Mercedes EQC are all capable of towing.
