This claim about the HSD not being so suitable to "excessive weight" doesn't surprise me at all, even though the so-called "scalability" is often pointed out as an excuse for Toyota to invest so hard on it. But when it comes to body rigidity under load, it just sounds quite weird since the Prius doesn't rely on an exclusive platform, and I've already seen Corollas towing without any problem.
