Start from the caravan instead: pick the van you like, and its page checks it against your car.
How we matched these to your CX-8
Every caravan below is checked against the Diesel AWD (2,000 kg braked), the highest-rated CX-8 we list. We compare each caravan's ATM (Aggregate Trailer Mass) and ball weight against that car's limits, using the same rules as our tow calculator.
- Comfortable match - the van sits inside your towing limit with room for payload.
- Close to the limit - inside your towing or ball-weight limit by less than 10%. Watch how you load it.
89 caravans a Mazda CX-8 can tow
This is a guide off the makers' published figures.The legal numbers are the compliance plates on your car and the van. Where we do not hold a published ball weight, we estimate it at 10% of ATM.Weigh the loaded rig at a public weighbridge to know for sure, then read the ticket.

Our guides to the numbers on this page.
Check your own car's figures
Published towing figures describe a factory-standard car. A bullbar, a long-range tank or suspension changes can move your real limits. Your CX-8's own figures are in its owner's manual. Cars built before July 2021 also carry them on a compliance plate in the door pillar. GCM (Gross Combination Mass) is the most the loaded car and van may weigh together, and the family and the gear count towards it. Weigh the loaded rig at a public weighbridge.

Checking a different caravan?
Run any CX-8 against any van for ball weight, GCM and what the car has left to carry.

Mazda CX-8 towing questions
What can a Mazda CX-8 tow?
The Mazda CX-8 is rated to tow 2,000 kg braked. On the caravan side the figure to work from is ATM, the weight of the van fully loaded. Every van below is checked against your car's braked rating using the maker's published figures. Each one is marked a comfortable match or close to the limit.
What size caravan can a Mazda CX-8 realistically tow?
Work from each caravan's ATM. The Mazda CX-8 is rated to tow 2,000 kg braked. Leave real margin for water, gear and a loaded boot. A van compared at its empty weight will be heavier once you pack it. Then check the figures against the compliance plate on your own car.
Do all CX-8 variants tow the same weight?
Braked towing capacity is 2,000 kg across the CX-8 variants on this page. Confirm it against your own compliance plate, because options and accessories change the numbers.
