From what I can see, the vehicle is capable of towing up to 3,500 pounds, but I find that hard to believe given the size of the engine. Does anyone have experience with installing a tow hitch and towing heavy weights with this model? Is it expensive to install the tow hitch along with the necessary wiring harness? For reference, I’m talking about the 2017 4-cylinder 2WD model.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I installed two hitches on Gen 2. Quite simple work. There are usually some good install videos at etrailer.com that walk you through the process.
Concerned about my 4-cylinder’s performance was me too. Still, it functioned flawlessly across the mountains. I just took it a little gentler on the driving and made sure I was always in the appropriate gear (manual).
Even though I wouldn’t want to tow all the time, I wouldn’t be concerned if I had to.
