Vehicle Towing

Mass Guide
Produced as a reference for members of the
Australian Caravan Industry’s affiliated organisations.

Revised November 2007

This is a guide only and should always be checked against motor

vehicle manufacturers’ specifications before use.

Produced and distributed by the Caravan Trade and Industries Association of

Queensland in conjunction with the Royal Automobile Club of Queensland.

CARAVAN INDUSTRY / RACQ VEHICLE TOWING MASS TABLE

The Vehicle Towing Mass Guide has been prepared to assist persons who are required to give advice to
members of the public seeking to make decisions regarding trailer towing and /or trailer – vehicle purchases.

The table includes data about many vehicles that have been sold new in Australia from 1997 onwards
although older popular towing vehicles have also been included.

Data included, where available, is the vehicle year model, manufacturer’s braked and unbraked towing
masses, tow ball downloads, specific towing conditions and vehicle weights.

Acknowledgement is made of the assistance provided by various Motor Manufacturers or their Agents in the
preparation of this guide and to the National Roads and Motorists Association (NRMA) for the use of
information contained in an earlier guide published by them.

Persons giving advice regarding towing mass data should always be aware that many manufacturers
have specific conditions for their vehicles when used for towing. Failure to comply with these
conditions may void that vehicle’s warranty, cause mechanical damage or worse, result in a vehicle
accident with possible loss-of-insurance implications.

Emphasis should always be stressed on the need for persons to refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s
handbook before contemplating towing and even prior to the purchase of a vehicle, as the cost of
additional mandatory / recommended vehicle equipment may become a buying consideration.

General Information

TOWING MASS LIMITS IN AUSTRALIA

Passenger vehicles and their derivatives, light commercial vehicles and 4 wheel drives with a Gross Vehicle
Mass (GVM) of less than 4.5 tonnes, can tow a loaded trailer with an Aggregate Trailer Mass (ATM) up to:

The lessor of:-

• The tow vehicle’s towbar rating (including the tow ball mass / download rating.) This information
should be shown on a plate attached to the tow bar.
OR
• The tow vehicle manufacturer’s recommended maximum trailer towing mass (including the tow ball
mass / download rating)

Where the tow vehicle manufacturer does not specify towing mass data, the vehicle may legally tow:

• A loaded trailer with brakes - up to 1.5 times the unladen mass of the vehicle.
OR
• A loaded trailer without brakes - not exceeding the unladen mass of the vehicle.

Note: The maximum GTM of an unbraked trailer must not exceed 750kgs.

Also, where the vehicle manufacturer specifies a maximum tow ball mass, this must be adhered
to. When no maximum ball mass is specified, the vehicle’s maximum rear axle load rating will be
the limiting ball load factor.

Not exceeding the vehicle’s Gross Combination Mass (GCM) and not towing a trailer that cannot
be safely controlled by the towing vehicle and its driver must also be considered.

DEFINITIONS

Kerb Mass / Tare Mass – the unladen mass of the vehicle

Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) – the total mass of the vehicle including its load
Gross Combination Mass (GCM) – the total mass of a loaded vehicle and its loaded trailer
Gross Trailer Mass (GTM) – the mass supported by the axle/s or wheels of a loaded trailer
Aggregate Trailer Mass (ATM) – the total loaded mass of a trailer including the tow ball download
Tow Ball Mass / Download – the mass transferred by a trailer onto the rear of a tow vehicle

SPEED LIMITS WHEN TOWING

For all states other than W.A., the speed limit when towing is the posted speed limit. For W.A the limit is the
posted limit to a maximum of 100km/h.

Some manufacturers including Ford and Holden have speed limits on their vehicles when towing above
certain trailer weights. Refer to the vehicle owner’s handbook for these limits.

Additionally, the following information should be offered:

Load Distribution / Levelling Devices

Load distribution / levelling devices are used to return the vehicle attitude to as level a condition as
possible after the trailer is connected to the vehicle by transferring some of the rear axle load to the front
axle. They are supplied in a range of sizes and styles to suit different ball loads.

Before using load levelling bars, it must be determined that the tow bar on the vehicle and the vehicle
itself are strong enough to withstand the loads imposed on the system by load levelling devices. This is
particularly critical when dealing with the lighter weight vehicles and bars.

Some vehicles have suspension height levelling systems. Guidance should be sought from the vehicle
manufacturer regarding the use of load levelling devices in conjunction with these systems.

Rear Axle Loads

All vehicles have rated maximum axle loadings. These load ratings include the carrying capacity of the
tyres.

It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the combination of the load in the vehicle and the
load of the trailer on the tow ball do not exceed the axle / tyre ratings. It may be necessary to weigh the
vehicle and / or the trailer over a weighbridge to confirm that axle load ratings are not exceeded.

Additional Vehicle Fittings Required When Towing

Additional vehicle fittings required when towing can include auto transmission and power steering oil
coolers, exhaust and drive shaft heat shields, revised differential oil, heavy duty radiators, revised
exhaust system support rings and body braces. Particular vehicle information should be available in
that vehicle owner’s handbook.

Vehicle Maintenance

On some vehicles, oil changes for engines, transmissions / transaxles and differentials are required to be
more frequent when the vehicle is used for towing. Refer to the vehicle owner’s handbook for this
information.

DISCLAIMER

This information has been based on data contained in an earlier guide released by the National
Roads and Motorists Association (NRMA), and updated by Caravan Trade and Industries Assn. of
Qld Ltd from information supplied by the vehicle manufacturers or their agents, or contained in
vehicle owner’s handbooks and sales brochures.

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in the table,
vehicle manufacturers or their agents can change specifications at any time without notice.
Therefore it may be found that earlier prints of information may vary from later information.

Consequently, Caravan Trade and Industries Assn. of Qld Ltd or the Royal Automobile Club of
Queensland (RACQ) cannot accept responsibility as to the continuing accuracy of the data, and are
