Towing Capacity Australia

Australian tow ratings are a four-number problem: braked rating, ball limit, GVM and GCM all have to hold at once. These pages list verified fields for named document dates and variants for Australia's most popular tow vehicles, and the caravan towing calculator checks four entered weight limits; it does not certify every towing requirement.

Frequently asked questions

Why can the same model have different limits?

Engine, body, drivetrain, build date and equipment can change the ratings. These pages retain the scope of each manufacturer document and do not extend one example to an entire generation.

Does tow-ball load use payload?

Yes. Static ball load is carried by the vehicle and uses GVM and axle capacity. It is also part of the complete trailer mass; avoid double counting it when calculating combined mass.

Why are some fields unresolved?

A field marked Not verified here was not established by the cited evidence. It is not zero. Obtain the documentation matching your vehicle rather than using a related model or an average across trims.

Each page links to its manufacturer evidence and explains its coverage. Unverified historical rows, averaged mass figures and inferred tow-ball limits are omitted. A cited document may cover an older build; do not assume it applies to a current vehicle. US-market ratings are covered separately in our US towing section.
