The weights shown are those of a basic vehicle without options: they vary depending on the vehicle's equipment. Consult a Brand Representative.
| Maximum Authorised Laden Weight (MMAC) Gross Train Weight (MTR) | Van version | Estate version | All-terrain |
| Weights shown on the manufacturer's plate (refer to the “Identification plates” section in chapter 6) | |||
| Braked trailer weight * | obtained by calculation: MTR - MMAC | ||
| Unbraked trailer weight * | 600 | 684 | 696 |
| Permitted load on towing ball * | 75 | ||
| Permitted load on roof | 100 (including roof rack system) | ||
* Towable load (towing a caravan, boat, etc.)
Towing is prohibited when the MTR-MMAC calculation equals zero, or when the MTR is equal to zero (or is not stated) on the manufacturer's plate.
- It is important to comply with the towing conditions permitted by local legislation and, in particular, those defined by the Highway Code. For any towbar fitting, contact your Brand Representative.
- When towing, the total train weight (vehicle + trailer) must never be exceeded. However, the following is tolerated:
- rear GAW exceeded by up to 15%,
- GVW exceeded by up to 10% or 100 kg (whichever limit is reached first).
In both cases, the maximum speed of the combination must not exceed 80 km/h or 100 km/h, and the tyre pressures must be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
- Engine output and hill-climbing ability decrease with altitude, so we recommend reducing the maximum load by 10% at 1,000 metres, then by a further 10% for each additional 1,000 metres.
Load transfer for Estate and All-terrain versions, medium wheelbase
Depending on local legislation, when the vehicle's GVW is not reached, up to 300 kg can be transferred to the braked trailer, within the vehicle's GTW.
