I'm sure it can tow it. I remember reading about it in the manual.Here's a link to help you out: http://www.infiniti-techinfo.c...5.pdf
I just can't see pulling anything with a car. Buy or rent a truck for that. I mean, how often do you have to tow the trailer?? You need to think about it that way.A truck was designed for work and towing. A car is not intended for either of those.Just my opinion.

From the Users Manual:
"Your vehicle was designed to be used to carry passengers and cargo. INFINITI does not recommend trailer towing, because it places additional loads on your vehicle's engine, drivetrain, steering, braking, and other systems.
An INFINITI Towing Guide (U.S. only) is available on the website at http://www.infiniti.com. This guide includes information on trailer towing capability and the special equipment required for proper towing.
If you must use this vehicle to tow a trailer, the trailer load should never exceed 1,000 lb."
I agree ... I would recommend not using the M45 for towing a trailer.
