The resulting f igure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity.
The maximum load f or your vehicle
is:
Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers f rom
the maximum load.
This f igure includes, cargo,
accessories, and the tongue weight if
you are towing a trailer.
To determine the correct cargo and
luggage load limit:
Determine the combined weight
of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicle. Locate the statement, ‘‘the
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed 1,208
lbs’’ on your vehicle’s placard (on
the driver’s doorjamb) if your
vehicle is the Touring model, f or
example. If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, the load f rom your trailer
will be transf erred to your vehicle.
To determine how this reduces
the available cargo and luggage
load capacity of your vehicle, see
page .
For example, if the maximum load is
1,388 lbs (EX model), and there will
be f ive 150 lbs passengers in your
vehicle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage load capacity is
638 lbs [1,388 750 (5 150) = 638
lbs]. Determine the combined weight
of accessories, luggage, and cargo
beingloadedinthevehicle.The
weight may not saf ely exceed the
available cargo and luggage load
capacity calculated in step 4
(458lbsinthisexample).
