Required equipment and applicability

  • Factory Trailer Tow Package
  • Conventional ball-hitch trailer only. These are the manufacturer table values for the stated body, drivetrain or towing-equipment scope; match the actual vehicle and equipment before using a published rating.
  • This record does not supply a vehicle-specific payload placard, GVWR, front/rear GAWR, installed receiver label, ball, ball mount or coupler rating.
  • Unknown trim, axle ratio, dimensions and transmission detail are not inferred or expanded into combinations.
  • US table only; Canadian table is separate. The maximum assumes a base vehicle with driver and required equipment; extra occupants, cargo and options reduce available towing capacity.
  • The numeric15,000-lb GCWR comes from the actual specification table, not the14,550-lb worked example on the previous page.
  • Applicable equipment: Factory Trailer Tow Package.

Exclusions

  • NISMO-specific manual not reviewed
02 / The connection

Weight carrying and weight distribution

Weight carrying

Owner must enter the installed equipment labels for this operating mode; a published vehicle maximum is not an installed component rating.

Trailer limit: Check your installed component label. Tongue limit: Check your installed component label.

Weight distributing

Owner must enter the installed equipment labels for this operating mode; a published vehicle maximum is not an installed component rating.

Trailer limit: Check your installed component label. Tongue limit: Check your installed component label.

Weight distribution does not raise factory ratings. Axle loads and vehicle mass in the adjusted state require measurements. Receiver, ball mount, ball, and coupler must each be checked.

Other manufacturer requirements

Manufacturer WD recommendation. Nissan recommends a weight-distributing hitch when towing over 5,000 lb. This recommendation is not stored as a mandatory WD threshold or an equipment capacity. Verify compatibility and manufacturer setup instructions. Manufacturer source

Vehicle tongue-load limit. The selected manufacturer row limits tongue load to 850 lb. This is separate from the actual receiver, ball mount, ball and coupler labels; the vehicle-specific restriction requires a separate check. Manufacturer source
