The vehicle's gradient climbing ability depends
on thewe ight distribution in theve hicle, thete r‐

The specified value applies in thefo llowing
cases:
R theve hicle is ready todrive – fuel tank full,
all fluids topped up, driver in theve hicle R
thero ad sur face conditions and thus traction
are good
A gradient climbing ability of 100% cor responds
