With a class C driving permit you may drive a truck with a permissible total mass over 3.5 t, but trailer rules are restrictive. Class C on its own only allows you to tow a “light trailer” with a permissible total mass up to 750 kg.

That’s why answer 1 (750 kg) is correct. Even though your truck is technically approved to tow much more (permissible towed load 22,000 kg), your driving licence category is the limiting factor in this question, not the vehicle’s capability.

To tow a trailer with 18,000 kg or 22,000 kg permissible total mass, you would generally need class CE (truck + heavy trailer). Rule of thumb: C = truck, only small trailer up to 750 kg; CE = truck with heavier trailers.
