cle.
Lexus does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Your vehicle is
not designed for trailer towing.
Calculation formula for your vehicle
When 2 people with the combined weight of A lb. (kg) are riding in your
vehicle, which has a total load capacity (vehicle capacity weight) of B lb.
(kg), the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity will be C
lb. (kg) as follows:
2
B* lb. (kg) - A*
1
* : A =Weight of people
2
* : B =Total load capacity
3
* : C =Available cargo and luggage load
In this condition, if 2 more passengers with the combined weight of D lb. (kg)
get on, the available cargo and luggage load will be reduced E lb. (kg) as fol-
lows:
4
C lb. (kg) - D*
4
* : D =Additional weight of people
5
* : E =Available cargo and luggage load
