2022 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN roof

If the vehicle exceeds the permitted gross weight or axle load for the rear axle, a speed of 80 km/h
must not be exceeded when towing a trailer. This also applies to countries where higher speeds are
permitted. Always obey speed limits. In some areas speed limits for vehicles towing trailers are
lower than for vehicles without trailers.
Any permitted excess loads for the vehicle are entered in the vehicle documents. If no permitted
excess load is entered, the permitted driving speed limit is 100 km/h taking into account country-
specific legislation.

Exceeding the maximum permissible weights, gross combination weights, loads,
dimensions, maximum speeds and axle loads can damage the vehicle and cause
accidents and serious injuries.
•Do not exceed the permitted weights, gross combination weights, loads, dimensions
and maximum speeds.
•The actual axle loads must never exceed the maximum permissible axle loads.
•The payload and the distribution of the load in the vehicle have an effect on the driving
response and braking distance of the vehicle. Adjust your speed accordingly.

The payload should be distributed as evenly as possible in the vehicle. When transporting
heavy objects in the luggage compartment, they should be placed either in front of or over
the rear axle in order to minimise the effect on the vehicle's handling.
