Determining the maximum permissible load
The following steps have been developed as
required of all manufacturers under Title 49,
Code of U.S. Federal Regulations, Part 575, pur‐
suant to the "National Traffic and Motor Vehicle
Safety Act of 1966".
#
Step 1: Locate the statement "The combined
weight of occupants and cargo should never
exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs." ("The combined
weight of occupants and cargo should never
exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.") on your vehicle's
tire and loading information table.
#
Step 2: Determine the combined weight of
the driver and passengers that will be riding
in your vehicle.
#
Step 3: Subtract the combined weight of the
driver and passengers from XXX kg or
XXX lbs.
#
Step 4: The resulting figure equals the per‐
missible load for cargo and luggage. For
example: If "XXX" equals 1400 lbs and there
are five occupants in your vehicle with a
weight of 150 lbs each, the maximum cargo
and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs (1400 -
750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs).
#
Step 5: Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being carried in the vehi‐
cle. For safety reasons, this weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo and lug‐
gage load capacity calculated in step 4.
