Weights, payload and roof load
The payload is the difference between the
permissible Gross Vehicle Weight (see
vehicle identification plate on page 215)
and the EC kerb weight.
To calculate the EC kerb weight, enter the
data from your vehicle below:
z Kerb weight from
+ ............. kg
page 222
z Weight of heavy
+ ............. kg
accessories
The total = ............. kg
is the EC kerb weight.
Optional equipment and accessories
increase the kerb weight and in some cases
also the permissible Gross Vehicle Weight,
which means that the payload will also
change slightly.
Note the weights given on the vehicle
identification plate.
The combined total of front and rear axle
loads must not exceed the permissible
Gross Vehicle Weight. For example, if the
front axle load is being fully utilized, the
rear axle can only bear a load that is equal
to the Gross Vehicle Weight minus the front
axle load.
See the vehicle identification plate on
page 215 or the vehicle documents for
permissible axle loads.
Technical data
Roof load
