A vehicle-specific Tire and

the driver door open, you will
find the label attached below the
door lock post (striker). The tire
and loading information label
shows the number of occupant
seating positions (1), and the
maximum vehicle capacity
weight (2) in kilograms and

The Tire and Loading

For more information on tires

Rating (GVWR) and the Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for
the front and rear axle. See
Certification/Tire Label later in
