Important checks

  • The towball limit we hold for the Mitsubishi Outlander is our estimate at 10% of the braked towing rating. Check the compliance plate or the owner's manual for the Mitsubishi Outlander's own figure before you rely on this check.
  • We could not run the GCM check for this pairing - that is the combined weight of the loaded car and caravan together. The Mitsubishi Outlander's compliance plate or owner's manual carries its GCM figure.

This is a guide off the makers' published figures.The legal numbers are the compliance plates on your car and the van. Weigh the loaded rig at a public weighbridge to know for sure, then read the ticket.

Your shortlist keeps every saved van on one page to compare side by side, and you can email the list to yourself.

Two people buy this van at the same price. One gets a loan rate 2% higher than the other.

Over seven years, the one with the higher rate pays about $5,200 more.

Jade's loan specialists compare offers from major banks and other lenders, and negotiate on your behalf.

Always check your compliance plate

Online databases use factory-standard specs. They do not know about the bullbar on your car, a suspension upgrade, or how much you are carrying. Each one changes your real limits.

How to find it

Open your passenger or driver door. Look for a silver or black metal plate riveted to the pillar. This plate overrides everything you read online.

Where the plate is and how to read it

Why the numbers move once you load up

The figure most often left out of the sum is payload, which is everything you add after the vehicles leave the factory.

  • Bullbar and winch: both add weight to the front of the car, and it comes out of your payload.
  • Passengers: everyone in the car, including the driver, comes out of its payload.
  • Ball weight: the weight the van puts on the towball comes out of your car's payload as well as its towing limit.

Work out what this van is allowed to carry, then check the figures before you pack it.

Always weigh your rig fully loaded.

This pairing is inside the published ratings, with not much room left.

Gear for a van close to your limits

The published weights sit close together here. A weight distribution hitch moves some of the towball load onto the car's front axle, which is where the ball weight takes it from.

These are factory figures for a standard vehicle. A bullbar, a winch, a second battery or a full water tank all come out of what you have left to carry.
