330e MSport towbar
Does anyone have a 330e with a towbar. Have ordered mine with one for bikes mainly. What does it do to the ride etc? Also, why is tow capacity reduced? Frame is the same as all other 3 series? TIA.

Lucky you to have the ability to have a towbar - my 330e delivered in October was before they added it as an option, which is not retrofittable...... Left me fuming, as they clearly changed the spec of a brand new car almost immediately. 😡
In terms of reduced towing capacity, its because of the effect that towing has on electric motor and regenerative braking. Teslas have the same restrictions. |

Afraid not. I checked with BMW UK and my dealer. They reenginerred the battery position to allow a tow bar fitting. There is no space to add one on the first 2 months of builds - they changed the spec from November, meaning those of us who placed early orders are badly disadvantaged. I only wanted it for putting a tin bar bike rack on the back. 🙄

Curious, did you end up getting a towbar? I am ordering a g20 and want the towbar but wondering if it will be visible when retracted? I've seen a picture of a G21 where you could see it when away
