Will my carfit?
Three measurements tell you whether your car will fit on the CT177: length, width at the tyres, and weight.

Quick answer
The CT177's bed is about 5.0 m long and 1.89 m wide, and the trailer is rated to 3,500 kg GVM. Most hatchbacks, sedans, coupes and sports cars fit comfortably. Measure your car's overall length and the width across the outside of its tyres, and check its weight plus the trailer's tare stays within 3,500 kg.
1. Length
Measure bumper to bumper. The bed is about 5.0 m long, which suits most passenger and sports cars. Very long vehicles — some large sedans, long-wheelbase vans and dual-cab utes — can be too long, so measure before you book.
2. Width at the tyres
The width that matters is across the outside of the tyres, because that's what sits on the deck. The bed is about 1.89 m wide. Wide-body kits and staggered wheel setups are worth measuring carefully.
3. Weight
The trailer is rated to 3,500 kg GVM — that's the trailer's own weight plus your car. Your tow vehicle also needs to be rated to tow that much: see can my car tow a car trailer?
What about ground clearance?
That's what the CT177 is built for. The hydraulic tilt deck and pull-out mini skids give a gentle loading angle, so most lowered and track cars load without ramps. See how to load a low car.
