Question:
Can I flat tow an automatic transmission Toyota Corolla with my class C , 31 ft Winnabago? Does the smart car Have an automatic transmission? Can it be flat towed? If neither of the above will work, do you have any suggestion for a relatively light, automatic transmission car that can be flat towed? Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
A 2018 Toyota Corolla automatic has a CVT so it cannot be flat towed. The manual transmission model can.
A Smart ForTwo of the same model year cannot be towed either.
Based on your criteria, I recommend the 2016-2018 Ford Focus, the 2009-2015 Smart ForTwo, or the 2010-2016 Chevy Equinox. I've attached help articles of these options to help you decide on your next vehicle and get help with the necessary components.
