Gawr (Gross Axle Weight Rating); Twr (Trailer Weight Rating) - Lexus LX 570 2016 Service Manual

GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating)

■
The maximum allowable gross axle
weight. The gross axle weight is the
load placed on each axle (front and
rear).

TWR (Trailer Weight Rating)

■
The maximum allowable gross trailer
weight. The gross trailer weight is
the sum of the trailer weight and the
weight of the cargo in the trailer.
TWR is calculated assuming base
vehicle with one driver, one front
passenger, towing package (if avail-
able), hitch and hitch systems (if
required).
Additional optional equipment, passengers and cargo in the vehicle will reduce the
trailer weight rating so as not to exceed GCWR, GVWR and GAWR.
If the gross trailer weight exceeds 3000 lb. (1360 kg), it is recommended to use a
trailer with 2 or more axles.
