Hi
I own a 2017 Toyota Corolla GX 1.8P/CVT Hatch. I've been told that it cannot tow trailers. Just wanted to know if it is safe to fit a tow bar for a bike rack only (carrying 3-4 bikes). Thanks.

Hi there,
It is fine to fit a towbar for a bike and small loads. This car has a tow rating unbraked of 450kg, and braked or 1,400kg. So it can tow, but it's not recommended to tow large weights due to the type of transmission it has (CVT).
