Trying To Find Info On My T6

I have a T6 Blue Motion 4 Wheel Drive kombi 2016.
I am looking at getting a Caravan and need the spec of my van to see if it will pull a caravan or not... when I put my details in to a website I get these choices.. I have no idea which one I choose but it makes a big difference when matching up a caravan though.
My engine is 1968 cc - can anyone tell me which of the below

1. T6 2.0 TDI (75 kW/101 hp)

2. T6 2.0 TDI (110 kW/147 hp)

3. T6 2.0 TDI (62 kW/83 hp)

4. T6 2.0 TSI (110 kW/147 h
 
They will all probably pull a Caravan, just some better than others. I'd of thought yours would be No.2

What website are you looking at that needs the engine specs, and what Caravan is it?
 
I’m still looking for a Caravan at the moment, and using this site to help me...if it’s not a good mach then I look for something else etc...
Some have come up ok (green) but say the following, so I tend to avoid...is that sensible?
Good
  • Hill starts
  • Usability highest gear
Bad
  • Good payload is essential
  • Higher revs uphill sometimes necessary
 
Look on you V5 registration document. It will list the power output in kW on there along with your maximum towing mass.

Have a look (take a photo on your phone) of the label stuck on the trim panel under the steering wheel.
 
Even T28 has enough weight to pull pretty much any Caravan within the 'Recommended' 85% rule. For instance, the heaviest 2019 Buccaneer twin axle, fully loaded has a max weight of 2000kgs and that's pretty extreme.
I'd of thought almost any T6 will be suitable for towing almost any Caravan, providing it has the grunt, which the 4motion should.

Do they even make a 4motion in the lower hp?

@Olly T6 uses his T6 to tow a big twin axle. He can give you a better idea on how they tow.

Think the lowest is 150 in fo mo that they do uk
 
Send me your vin number and I can pull up all the details for your van
 
Itll be a bigger HP being the 4motion and have a 2500kg tow weight, it will tow a caravan no sweat.

I've had a few 2 berth caravans and they only weighed something like 1100-1300kgs!
