The current Audi 100 can tow up to 1,900 kg braked. Figures below are the strongest variant in each generation — lighter trims and engines tow less.
Unbraked (no trailer brakes): 750 kg.
| Years | Braked | Unbraked |
|---|---|---|
| 1976–1982 | 1,100 | 640 |
| 1982–1988 | 1,700 | 675 |
| 1988–1991 | 1,700 | 680 |
| 1991–1994 | 1,900 | 750 |
Towing capacity is the manufacturer-rated maximum for the model's strongest variant in each generation, not an average across trims — a base engine will tow less than the figure shown. Cars with an implausible source-data towing figure relative to their own kerb weight are excluded rather than shown with a guessed correction.
