Curious about towing capability also. The "lifestyle hitch" seems designed only to hold things like bike racks and cargo carriers, and in the United States the Seltos isn't rated to tow. But because the Seltos is rated to tow in other markets, I'd imagine the hitch is mounted in a way that could support the load if the hitch is sturdy enough. I would imagine that in use as a "lifestyle hitch" that it wouldn't come with a wiring harness though I don't know that for sure.
Towing in the US might void the powertrain warranty, and inching up a steep boat ramp would be really hard on the clutch. Any towing I am thinking of doing would be more along the lines of a 4x8 foot open bed trailer to haul gardening supplies and stuff to take to the transfer station, so a much less demanding use than yours.
