I have an XC60 R design pro with the active air suspension, and reading this has interested me as I tow a twin axle caravan. Certainly without it attached, there is no way the towbar height meets the required level, depending on the setting it can be between 10mm and about 40 mm too high. Will need to go and hitch up to see what happens.
I notice in the printed supplement to the handbook, it states " To facilitate towing a trailer on a car with air suspension, select a) Dynamic driving mode or b) the Suspension control➡️Dynamic setting in Individual drive mode. I guess this is to try to get it to lower???

I also see it states " the cars system for level control endeavours to maintain a constant height regardless of load(up to the maximum permissible weight).
Thus, I guess whether the car is laden or unladen, will make no difference to the height of the towbar as it will be kept constant by the air suspension.
