Matching The Sports Cart With The Towing Vehicle

  • The trailer gross weight must be less than 750kg
  • Check the towing limit of the towing vehicle (On VIN plate of the car)
  • The trailer should be no more than 85% of the kerb weight (as long as 85% does not exceed the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended towing limit)

A good rule of thumb, for safety and stability, when towing a Sports Cart, is the 85% figure recommended. This suggests that you should not tow a Sports Cart that weighs more than 85% of the towing vehicle's kerb weight (as long as 85% does not exceed the vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing limit).

(The kerb weight is defined as the weight of the vehicle plus a full tank of petrol and 75kg (for the driver and luggage).)

Sports Cart is designed to be light and less than 750kg to allow most cars to tow it.
