Dolly to Tow 2021 Kia Soul With DCT Behind Motorhome
Question:
I have read numerous places that the Kia soul turbo with the dct can be flat towed - Kia says yes and no depending on who you talk to- numerous rv and car sites state yes. Do you have the parts for towing this vehicle behind an Rv

I took a look at the owner's manual for a 2021 Kia Soul, and it states on page 6-23 not to tow with four wheels on the ground if it has DCT because it will damage the transmission. It does say towing FWD vehicles with the front wheels off the ground is okay, and while I recommend verifying this, that means you can use a dolly as my research does indicate this is a FWD vehicle. So for that the best option is a tow dolly from Demco:
- Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes - Foldable # DM9713045
This dolly is great because it uses a simple surge coupler to activate the hydraulic disc brakes; that means there is no messy wiring to worry about like with dollies that use electric brakes. Disc brakes are also highly responsive and give the better braking performance than electric brakes which helps ease the stress of your motorhome while it's towing.
The Kar Kaddy SS also has ramps also fold up, along with a stow-away tongue which makes it the easiest dolly to store so it isn't taking up space in your garage when you aren't using it. I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well of the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly # DM9713045.
