Towing with W222 S350L

[David404]

OK do it's not the obvious tow car but it's heavy enough for the caravan and has tow capacity 2100kg.

My query is around nose weight limits, anybody out there with a 2015 S350 who knows what tow bar nose weight limit is and/or has experience of towing with same?

88kg

Thanks, 88kg puts it in the running...

Looked at an S class today, massively impressive even SHMBO was bowled over. Looked at GLE 350 straight after which was year newer with fewer miles bug actually MIT more money better tow car but after the S it seemed rather ordinary, poverty spec even....

The W222 is in a different league isn't it.

Don't forget the GLE is "one down" from the S so a bit unfair to compare - GLS is comparable.

I know it's a bit older, but I have towed with a W220 V6 petrol towing a 1400kg van and it did tow well at low 20's mpg. More modern engine should do a little better.
