2-5. Driving information
From this condition, if 3 more passengers with the combined weight of
388 lb. (176 kg) get on, the available cargo and luggage load will be
reduced as follows:
• With third seats
834 lb. - 388 lb. = 446 lb. (378 kg - 176 kg = 202 kg)
• Without third seats
634 lb. - 388 lb. = 246 lb. (288 kg - 176 kg = 112 kg)
As shown in the above example, if the number of occupants increases,
the cargo and luggage load equaling the combined weight of the occu-
pants who got on later, by an amount. In other words, if an increase in the
number of occupants causes an excess of the total load capacity (com-
bined weight of occupants plus cargo and luggage load), you must
reduce the cargo and luggage on your vehicle.
