I'll also note in another test I linked in here in another thread, Carexperts towing test, all the 4 cylinder utes failed the test.
ALL of them.

Many people who tow big vans have no issue doing it with a 4 cylinder diesel, doesn't matter the brand (except for maybe the Navara lol). They do the job, but the bigger 6 will always be the better choice when torque is king.
Just remember going back to the 70's and 80's, when towing a couple of tonnes with a Falcon or Kingswood flat out making about 300nm from a straight 6 was the norm.
