I currently own a 2017 Kia Soul and absolutely love it. However I purchased a small camper and need a vehicle to be able to easily tow this...1500 pounds plus equipment. I have been told my car is not supposed to be towing this but it does seem to handle it quite well. Please advise.

    You shouldn't use a Kia Soul for towing.

    You can get on line and do some reasearch with the different manufacturer websites - I would think most small SUVs can handle that kind of weight.
