I pull a Coachman 575 (approx 1500kg) with my b5p XC60. Its effortless, with 250bhp its never been the slightest issue.

The only thing that annoys is the fuel economy when towing. On the motorway at a steady 55, I get between 20 and 23 mpg.

In my old B5P XC90 I towed a Coachman Arcadia 860 which was 2000kg and it managed no problems at all apart from terrible fuel consumption.

A couple of other differences:
  • MY24 has CarPlay as standard
  • MY24 has a 2-phase in-car charger

Just had a call to advise delivery date of 24th of June. Better than I expected.
