It depends on the model and variant. Twin-axle caravans typically weigh 1,400-1,800 kg, so you'll need a Volkswagen with a braked towing limit above that weight. Check the 85% rule as well. Your caravan's MTPLM should ideally be no more than 85% of your car's kerbweight.
Many modern Volkswagen models offer factory-fit or dealer-fit detachable towbars. Check with your Volkswagen dealer or refer to the options list for your specific model year.
