Towing Capacity on Petrol Models

[WiredRacing]

Can any European (and UK) owners please check their owners guide and tell me what's listed as a towing capacity (braked and unbraked) for thier vehicles.

Also please state the transmission in use as well.

All I can find online is info specific to the UK diesels.

The rating here is only 1500lbs (not kgs), but that's awfully common amungst non-truck vehicles in Canada. I suspect either the market is too small to go through the proper testing or there's something in the test to claim the rating that's not there for other countries.

There are no petrol models available in the UK. The figures you found are what we have.
