maybe in America, but in europe it is a different story with the netherlands and sweden.
I don't think they all need 5000 pounds but they will need a tow-bar for 2500 pounds.
You don't need a big car to tow a lot. Our Renault Clio (4 meters length) is capable of towing 2750 pounds.
So in europe (and for sure in the netherland and sweden). A tow bar is needed for accepting it as a family car.
The number 1 reason that electric cars are holding back is that people that can afford such cars, they mostly also have a caravan!.
now this problem is fixed with the X and the 3, a lot of people are considering buying those cars.
I hope not. I may get the towing option but I really only need it twice a year. Put the boat in, take the boat out
Model S does not have towing capability but I agree on your speculation about a 3000 lb limit. That would be the high end for a vehicle this size, at least in the US market. It could be as low as 1500-2000 but I'd guess between 2000-3000 lbs.The MS and the MX both have serious rear framing and thus can nicely handle the 5000/500 lb limitation. Assuming the 3 also has similar framing (and that would be assuming a lot!) its vehicle weight (?) might suggest a 3000 lb limit. However I would reduce that to 2500 lb just to make a statement about towing safety in general which can be a very nebulous topic.

I can pretty much guarantee it will be Class I tow hitch which is rated at max of 2000# and 200# tongue. I just can't see them going with anything higher than that, just doesn't make sense.
I became interested in this thread when reading about Tesla creates a ‘tiny house’ to feature its energy products and seeing a Model 3 towing their solar-ready 2 tone small house demonstration. So its got to be possible. Looking for more information on the tow package.
Except that is not a Model 3. That is a Model X towing the tiny house. Easiest way to know the difference is look at the door handles and headlights. X door handles for the front and rear doors are next to each other. Model 3 door handles are not and are shaped like hockey sticks.I became interested in this thread when reading about Tesla creates a ‘tiny house’ to feature its energy products and seeing a Model 3 towing their solar-ready 2 tone small house demonstration.
