Determine the combined weight
of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicl e.
Locate
the statement, ‘‘the
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed 1,158
lbs ’’ on your vehicle’s placard. The
placard is driver’s doorjamb.
To
determine the correct cargo and
luggage load limit:
The
maximum load for your vehicle
is 1,158 lbs (525 kg). This figure
includes the total weight of all
occupants, cargo, and accessories,
and the tongue load if you are towing
a trailer.
Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers from
1,158 lbs. The
resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capaci ty.
For example, the maximum load is
1,158 lbs and there will be five 150
lbs passengers in your vehicle, the
amount of available cargo is 408 lbs.
[1,158 750 (5 150) = 408 lbs.]
In addition, the total weight of the
vehicle, all occupants, accessories
cargo must not exceed the gross
vehicle weight rating (GVWR) or the
gross axle weight rating (GAWR).
