MPAC (Maximum Permissible Axle Capacity), and permissible
drawbar load before towing. ( P. 666)
◆Towing hitch/bracket
Toyota recommends the use of the Toyota hitch/bracket for your
vehicle. Other products of a suitable nature and comparable quality
may also be used.

Total trailer weight
Weight of the trailer itself plus
the trailer load should be within

The combined weight of the driver, passengers, luggage, towing hitch,
total curb mass and drawbar load should not exceed the gross vehicle
mass by more than 100 kg (220.5 lb.). Exceeding this weight is danger-
ous.
Maximum permissible rear axle capacity
The weight borne by the rear axle should not exceed the maximum per-

dangerous.
The values for towing capacity were derived from testing conducted at

reduced at high altitudes.
