A lot of unexpected things about it when you read the book.
Eg, it has a radiator.

Nice toy, wish I had the spare cash to buy one.

Now all you need do is fit a tow bar and buy one of these

Trouble is, the vehicle is specced at 49 kW so 20kVA is a bit low...

That is the max power. But most of the time you use a tenth of that.
The traction battery is only 15Kwh.

However, assuming that max. power is used, for example, when
accelerating or going uphill, having less than half the power available
would reduce performance very significantly. (Even ignoring the fact you
are now towing a lump.)
