Towing Loads
WARNING
Towing improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability, which can result in
serious injury or death. Always follow the precautions outlined below when towing:
• Do not exceed the recommended maximum towing loads for your vehicle (see Specifications section).
• Make sure the vertical load on the trailer hitch never exceeds 100 kg or 220 lbs.
• Operate the vehicle slower than usual and take into consideration the terrain and the slope.
• Do not tow more than the recommended weight for the vehicle.
Attach a trailer to the trailer hitch bracket only. Do not attach a trailer to any other location or you may lose control of
the vehicle. Never tow a trailer on a grade steeper than 15°.
Driving Range
Towing loads will reduce your driving range. Avoid high speeds and fast accelerations. It is recommended to use low
gear for towing uphill. Always be aware of your traction battery state of charge and plan your drive accordingly.
