Assuming you are buying a newish one the petrol is a 310bhp 2 litre turbo with 295lbs of torque ignoring the EV side, so it can tow plenty on its own and it'd be doing most of thr grunt work anyway, in constant AWD I've not had the battery empty when pulling, car keeps the battery topped up.

On the XC60 with air at least towing as 22s were a non issue on comfort but had a number of tyre failure due to profiles and potholes so I took mine off.
