Toyota says you can dolly tow a Camry Hybrid included. Never on 4 wheels though. release brake and secure front wheels on dolly.

Hello Bud,

If your Highlander has a 4WD emblem on the tailgate in the lower right corner, it is indeed a 4 wheel drive model. If the emblem is not there, it is most likely a 2 wheel drive.Toyota says you can tow the 2 wheel model with a dolly front wheels up. For the 4 wheel drive, you’re probably not going to like the answer. The only approved way Toyota recognizes for your all wheel drive is to put the vehicle on a car trailer and pull it behind a motor home, etc.,no wheels down.

Gary I have a 2008 Highlander with front wheel drive and I believe it has four wheel drive when I push the “snow” button near the shift changer. My question is can i tow it on a tow dolly with the front wheels up and the back down. What other procedure is needed to tow it safely. Great website! Thanks

I own a 2008 Toyota Yaris it has a standard transmission (stick shift) and I tow it behind my Winnebago with all 4 wheels down. I’ll I do is put the transmission in neutral, parking brake is in off position, and the ignition is on accessary (this unlocks the power steering). I start my car up every time I stop are unhook for 3 minutes to keep the car battery charged. I have a Roadmaster Tow Bar and the front Roadmaster brackets for my Toyota Yaris are hidden, which I like when the tow bar is not hooked up. The Brackets cost me $238.00 from Roadmaster. I’ve had no problems towing my Toyota. John R. Presho

Does Toyota allow the Yaris (manual transmission) to be towed 4 wheels down?
