I pushed the limit
I had a friends 7500Lb 2005 F150 FX4 break down on our way to the shop, so what did I do? I hooked my towstrap to it of course! I pulled him approximately 6 miles at speeds up to 45 mph. The big struggle was having to stop at a stoplight on a 10% grade which I thought was going to completely burn the clutch out >.<
I have a curt class 1 hitch and regularly pull my ATV trailer with it and have moved from WV to GA towing a 1900 pound U-haul trailer with little incident as long as I kept at 65 and ensured massive stopping distance when any sort of water was on the roads. I think Garm posted a grainy picture of it awhile back on here. Yes, I would say a yaris can tow a small trailer
