From what I can find, Tesla differentiates between a trailer (500lb tongue weight) and a bike rack (120lb limit) due to the extra leverage from rack. I guess that makes sense, though I don't think I've heard of the being spelled out before with other brands.

I have definitely seen the "not rated to tow" in the US, while the exact same car in EU is rated at 3000lbs (common for VWs).
