Hi there,

I am considering purchasing a Honda Stream RSZ and would appreciate any advice.
I am not very familiar with the Honda engines (R20A) or the CVT gearbox. Would this car be suitable for light towing? We own a 650kg pop top camper.

Thanks for your time.

Hi there,
Older CVT's in general were not able to tow very much if a rating was given at all. There are no tow specs available for imported vehicles, but a similar vehicle is the Civic and this one has a conventional transmission but rated 500kg unbraked and 800kg max braked. So a CVT would be very similar if not less than this.
