Those little European trailers are clever things. I have a Brenderup 1205S with the ABS top here in the states.

Great little trailer. Good to 750 kgs I believe. Generally I load it to about 750 lbs or less.

Tows good on the highway. Great for moving our bicycles, my tablesaw and tools, camping gear, trips to the hardware store.

Has two sets of sides so I can use it as a short trailer, or put on the second set of sides and have a 36" high cargo area.

Wish it was a few inches longer and wider. I carry 4x8 sheet goods on top of the trailer sides on crossbars I made rather than in the trailer.

Yeah. .Americans are suckers for the ads and hearsay telling them that they
need a 3-ton truck to drive 5 miles to work, so that doesn't surprise me.

Here in rural France I see a lot of utility trailers, almost always hitched
to small, light cars, though so far I haven't noticed any behind EVs.
That's how they move stuff without having to own and drive a gas-guzzling
monster that literally won't fit through some of these narrow medieval
alleyways.

My neighbor is a landscaper.  I often see his trailer loaded with brush on
the way to the recycling center.  He pulls it with a 1999 Citroen Saxo
supermini.  Never a problem, he says.

You should see the hitches used in Europe.  They're different.
