Engines
Engine characteristics
The engine characteristics (capacity, maximum power, maximum power speed, fuel, CO2 emissions...) for your vehicle are given in the registration document, as well as in sales brochures.These characteristics correspond to the values type-approved on a test bed, under conditions defined in European legislation (Directive 1999/99/EC).For more information, contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Weights
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen weight + driver (75 kg).The GTW and towed load values indicated apply up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for every additional 1 000 metres.The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, on condition that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by the same amount.The recommended nose weight is the vertical load on the towbar ball (removable with or without tools).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to protect the engine; when the ambient temperature is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight.
If the ambient temperature is high, it is recommended that the engine be allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
Towing with a lightly loaded vehicle can adversely affect roadholding.Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer.Never exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) when towing (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
GV W: gross vehicle weight, the maximum authorised vehicle weight.GT W: gross train weight, the maximum authorised weight of vehicle plus trailer.
