Asked by Ulrich Markham
I currently drive a BA Ford Falcon sedan, but I'm looking at downsizing to a medium size second hand dealership certified car. I have a small aluminium boat which weighs around 300kg fully loaded and I'd like your opinion on the towing capacity of a later model used Toyota Camry Altise from 2012 onward.
Answered by CarsGuide
25 Mar 2016The towing capacity of the 2012 Camry is 500kg if the trailer has no brakes and 1200kg if it does have brakes. Given your wanting to tow a small aluminium boat I assume your trailer doesn't have brakes, so the 500kg limit would apply. Remember though that it's the total weight that you plan to tow, which includes the weight of the trailer, not just the weight of the boat and whatever you carry in it.
