3.4.4 Trailer
Unladen weight Payload Trailer weight
The trailer weight must be less than or equal to:
• the maximum towable mass for your campervan (see “Technical Specifications”)
• the maximum authorised mass for your coupling
The latter is calculated using the value of D (in kN) stated on the coupling, with the following formula:
MR = (D x T) ÷ [(9.8 x T) - D]
Where T = maximum authorised mass of your vehicle (in tonnes).
For example, if T = 3.5t and D = 12.5kN, then MR = 2t.
Maximum towable weight
Maximum authorised mass
Formerly known as GVW
Maximum gross total weight
Formerly known as GCW
Note : Pilote Group is committed to delivering vans whose MRO sits within the 5% tolerance threshold of that set during the certification process. This 5% value was set
by European regulations in order to take into account potential variations in campervan weights due to manufacturing variables, both for the base vehicle and living area:
the external canvas’ average thickness or the humidity rate of porous components may vary, for example.
