With an unladen weight of 2,690 kg, the payload comes to only 810 kg, a low share for this weight class that points to a sturdy, heavy frame construction. With six wheels on a 4.76 m wheelbase and 2.25 m width, the TR35 sits on a wide, stable chassis. Unlike most trailers in its class, it is rated for a top speed of 130 km/h, well above the usual 100 km/h.
The higher rated speed requires correspondingly engineered running gear, especially the brakes and tyres. Towing behind a car only requires licence category B, as long as the combined weight does not exceed 3,500 kg; heavier towing vehicles require category BE. The sturdy six-wheel build points to use in carrying heavy, compact loads.
When buying a used trailer from the 2017 build year, given the running gear rated for 130 km/h, the tyres deserve particular attention, including tread depth and manufacturing date, since the speed rating depends directly on tyre condition. The checklist should also include the brakes on all six wheels, the axle bearings for play, and the frame for cracking around the axle mounts.
