    Hello

    Can anyone tell me the trailering capacity of the 740, 840, and 940 Volvo models is?

    I know that the 240s with the 2.3 motor can tow a 3,300 lb trailer

    740 models?

    850 models?

    940 models?

    Thanks
    Christopher

    There is no 840. You must mean the 850.

    From http://www.volvoclub.org.uk/pdf/towing-specs.pdf the maximum load
    capacities are:

    240 3300 pounds = 1500 kg

    740 3300 pounds = 1500 kg

    850 3520 pounds = 1600 kg

    940 3520 pounds = 1600 kg

    For maximum trailer capacity use maximum tire pressure in your car.
    This increases the load capacity and stability of the car in pulling a
    trailer.
