TOWING WEIGHTS
Vehicles supplied with a 3.0L petrol engine, do not facilitate towing.
For details of the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW), axle weights, and the load in the vehicle's luggage compartment, see WEIGHTS.
The trailer's nose weight should also be considered when calculating the GVW.
Europe only: When towing, the maximum permissible GVW can be increased by a maximum of 100 kg, provided that the road speed is limited to 100 km/h (62 mph) or less.
When calculating the rear axle loading, remember that the trailer's nose weight, the weight in the vehicle's luggage compartment, the weight on a roof rack, and the weight of the rear seat passengers must all be added together.
