I would assume it's the same as the previous Gen4, 350kg unbraked, 1300kg braked and a 75kg towball nose weight. They have only removed the rear seats and classed it as a commercial vehicle to get around the EU emissions.
I was am hoping that because it's a commercial variant that Suzuki have enabled payload offsetting. This is where the manufacturer only stipulate the gross train weight and gross vehicle weight on the registration documents which allows for the payload of the vehicle to be used by the trailer so an empty car will be able to tow a heavier trailer so long as the combination weight is not exceeded. So for example you can tow 1300kg with 4 passengers in the road version and that's it whereas with the van you can tow 1300kg with the van full or say 1500kg if the van is just a driver. If you see what I mean.

l would be surprised if anyone is buying Jimnys at £28-30,000
Unless the price is hidden in a PCP agreement where it's more about the monthly payments and you don't actually own the vehicle.
l called about one at £26,000 and the price soon fell to £23,000 after a little negotiation
We took a look at year old one on Saturday at £26,000 on a dealer forecourt (no, we were not purchasing at that price, we had to look at it to see the "small print" on the screen with the price on it). Salesman was adamant it would sell and seemed reluctant to move on it despite me being interested in buying one ( but not at that price)
