Towing capacity = the lower of the manufacturer's max braked towing weight and gross train weight minus gross vehicle weight.
Thinking of towing a caravan or trailer with a Dacia Duster III? Here are the kerbweight, gross vehicle weight, gross train weight, payload and towing capacity, engine by engine, plus what the UK towing rules say.
The gross vehicle weight (GVW) is the maximum laden weight of the car on its own. The gross train weight (GTW) is the maximum authorised weight of the whole outfit, car plus loaded trailer. Towing capacity is the lower of the manufacturer maximum braked towing weight and the gross train weight minus the gross vehicle weight.
Across the listed engines, towing capacity is not disclosed for the listed versions, check the V5C logbook.
Payload is the gross vehicle weight minus the kerbweight: not disclosed for the listed versions, check the V5C logbook. Gross vehicle weight is not disclosed for the listed versions, check the V5C logbook and gross train weight not disclosed for the listed versions, check the V5C logbook.
In the UK, if you passed your car driving test on or after 1 January 1997 you can now tow a trailer up to 3,500 kg MAM with a standard category B licence: the rules changed in December 2021 and the separate car-and-trailer (B+E) test is no longer required. Drivers who passed before 1 January 1997 usually keep grandfather rights for larger combinations. As a stability guide, less experienced drivers are advised to keep the loaded caravan weight to no more than about 85% of the car kerbweight. Always check the V5C logbook and the manufacturer plate for the exact limits before hitching up.
