Vehicle Loading
• GAWR FRT and GAWR RR - Gross Axle Weight
Rating for the front and rear axles. The GAWR is the
maximum distributed weight that each axle can
support.
United States:
Canada:
CAUTION: To prevent damage, never load
Model X so that it is heavier than GVWR or
exceeds the individual GAWR weights.
Calculating Load Limits
1. Locate the statement "The combined weight of
occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs
or XXX kg" on the "Tire and Loading Information"
label.
2. Determine the combined weight of all occupants
that will ride in the vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the occupants
from XXX lbs or XXX kg (see Step 1).
4. The resulting figure equals the available cargo load
capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals
1400 lbs (635 kg) and there will be five 150 lb
(68 kg) passengers in the vehicle, the amount of
available cargo capacity is 650 lbs (1400 ‑ 750
(5 x 150) = 650 lbs) or 295 kg (635 ‑ 340
(5 x 68) = 295 kg).
5. Determine the combined cargo weight being loaded
on the vehicle. That weight must not exceed the
available cargo load capacity calculated in Step 4.

WARNING: Trunks are the preferred places to
carry objects. In a collision, or during hard braking
and sharp turns, loose items in the cabin could
injure occupants.
Example Load Limit Calculations
How much cargo Model X can carry depends on the
number and weight of passengers. The following
calculated load limit examples assume passengers
weigh 150 lbs (68 kg). If passengers weigh more or less,
available cargo weight decreases or increases
respectively.

lbs/68 kg)
Available cargo weight
The cargo weight should be distributed between the
front and rear trunks.
CAUTION: Never load more than 175 lbs (80 kg)
on the rear load floor (above the lower trunk
compartment) or more than 285 lbs (130 kg) in
the lower trunk compartment. Doing so can cause
damage.
