Trailer towing (Canada)
Your vehicle is designed primarily as a passenger-carrying vehicle,
thus towing a trailer will have an adverse effect on handling, perfor-
mance, braking, durability, and fuel consumption. For your safety
and the safety of others, do not overload the vehicle or trailer.
Toyota warranties do not apply to damage or malfunction caused by
towing a trailer for commercial purposes.
Weight limits
n
Confirm the total trailer weight, gross vehicle weight, gross axle
weight and trailer tongue load are all within the limits.
Gross vehicle weight
n
The gross vehicle weight must not exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) indicated on the Certification Label. The
gross vehicle weight is the sum of weights of the unloaded vehi-
cle, driver, passengers, luggage, hitch, and the trailer tongue
load. It also includes the weight of any special equipment
installed on your vehicle.
Gross axle weight
n
The load on either the front or rear axle resulting from distribu-
tion of the gross vehicle weight on both axles must not exceed
the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed on the Certification
Label.
