I gotta doubt that that's feasible:
2017 R-Pod RP-176 is a very small travel trailer weighing dry in at 3800lbs/1720kgs, it's not the trailer in the photo but... It looks about the same size, single axle, short as shit, tear drop shape. And that's the dry weight, once you add in gear That's a lot more weight. Typically most people expect to add in about another 1500 lbs/680kg from the dry weight. So that's a total of about 2400kgs, which is past what that car should tow.
In fact I'm not really seeing any trailers that aren't pop-ups that would qualify at the weight you're saying, even without gear.
That's not to say it doesn't exist, hell maybe my Google searches aren't showing me shit from across the pond that would work, but metal is heavy.
I would recommend checking the manufacturer specs. The company is called Wilk, it should be one from the Sentos range. The numbers are literally from the spec sheet.
