only a handful of hybrids will have GVWRs of 3500lbs. and they are around a max of 17'. but nearly all have very low CCC numbers.
some will only have 100-200lbs. for cargo, battery, propane and water.
but your problem is that the frontal area of a hybrid, will exceed the frontal area limits on any minivan, except the Astro/Safari minivans which are no longer made.
any conventional hybrid or travel trailer's frontal area will exceed your van's max amount.
second issue is the van's payload amount. when you add passengers, cargo, WDH and tongue weight, it'll probably exceed the van's payload amount.
