A vehicle-specific Tyre and Loading
Information label is attached to the
centre pillar (B-pillar). This label shows
the number of occupant seating
positions (1), and the maximum vehicle
capacity weight (2) in kilograms and
pounds.
The Tyre and Loading Information label
also shows the size of the original
equipment tyres (3) and the
recommended cold tyre inflation
pressures (4). For more information on
tyres and inflation see
and
There is also important loading
information on the vehicle Certification
label. It may show the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) and the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the
front and rear axle. See
“

Label

Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
–
1.
Locate the statement
“
The combined
weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX kg or
XXX lbs.
”
on your vehicle's placard.
2.
Determine the combined weight of
the driver and passengers that will
be riding in your vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined weight of the
driver and passengers from XXX kg
or XXX lbs.
4.
The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For example,
if the
“
XXX
”
amount equals 1400 lbs.
and there will be five 150 lb
passengers in your vehicle, the
amount of available cargo and
luggage load capacity is 650 lbs.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)
5.
Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity calculated in
Step 4.
6.
If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult
this manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo and
luggage load capacity of your
vehicle.
”
This vehicle is neither designed nor
intended to tow a trailer.
Example 1
1. Vehicle Capacity Weight for Example 1
= 181 kg (400 lbs)
2. Subtract Occupant Weight @ 68 kg
(150 lbs) × 1 = 68 kg (150 lbs)
3. Available Occupant and Cargo Weight
= 113 kg (250 lbs)
