What about automatic?

Hello guys..
My first post and/or question here in this family..
I want to tow a Polaris Xp with my fit (jazz where I'm from) 2013 AT sport with paddle shift. I've seen all this options above are MT. What does that mean for my AT?
Polaris weight is said to be 1400 lb
Any suggestions ?
THANK YOU!

I think you'd probably want to install a transmission cooler pulling that much weight. Some kind of brakes on the trailer would be a good idea too, especially if the 1400lbs doesn't include the weight of the trailer. Just for reference, in Europe they rate the Jazz (what the Fit is called there) capable of towing about 1,000lbs without trailer brakes and 2,000lbs with them. The Jazz does have a stiffer rear suspension setup, but I don't know that it matters that much as long as your careful not to put too much weight on the trailer tongue.
