a guy here at 'yota said the HSD does not like excessive weight, and that the body isn't rigid enough in the long run of using a trailer.


And priuses until the latest gen are not allowed to tow here in eu area.


A trailer here has also mandatory insurance, it's separate from car.

If it has brakes, it must be inspected.

(trailer accidents rare here, though. I guess having some laws is good sometimes)

My war wagon can legally pull 400kg with non-brake trailer, and 1000kg with a braked trailer.
