Classification of hitches in the U.S. are dependent upon the method of transferring the load. The Class one hitch is only attached at the bottom of the bumper by two bolts and to the bottom of the trunk by double plates with three. At second class hitch, if available, would use the frame exclusively. This car, not having a separate frame, could not carry a class 3 hitch.In Australia, the maximum downforce on the tongue via the towball is 10%
of the rated maximum towing capacity of the tow vehicle. For example, if
the vehicle has a 3.5 tonne towing capacity (like my brother's 2015 Ford
Ranger XLS ute), the maximum tongue/towball weight is 350kg.
Not sure if that applies to America but that's the basic rule here in
Australia
Anything more than 500# is very much the tail wagging the dog.
