Weights, Payload And Roof Load - Vauxhall Corsa 2007 Owner's Manual

Weights, payload and roof load

The payload is the difference between the
permitted Gross Vehicle Weight (see
identification plate on page 266) and the
EC kerbweight.
To calculate the kerbweight, enter the data
for your vehicle below:
z Kerbweight from
Table 1, page 276 +.............. kg
z Additional weight of
equipment variants
from Table 2, page 279 +.............. kg
z Weight of heavy
accessories from
Table 3, page 279 +.............. kg
Total =.............. kg
is the EC kerbweight.
Optional equipment and accessories
increase the kerbweight, which means that
the payload will also change slightly.
Note the weights given in the vehicle
documents.

The combined total of front and rear axle
loads must not exceed the permissible
Gross Vehicle Weight. For example, if the
front axle is bearing its maximum
permissible load, the rear axle can only
bear a load that is equal to the Gross
Vehicle Weight minus the front axle load.
With the trailer attached and the towing
vehicle fully loaded, including all the
passengers, the permitted rear axle load
(specified on identification plate and
vehicle documents) for Hatchbacks may be
exceeded by 45 kg and the permitted total
load may be exceeded by 50 kg.
For Corsavans, the permitted rear axle
load may be exceeded by 25 kg. The
permitted total load may be exceeded by
the following amounts with the engines
specified below:
Z 10 XEP
Z 12 XEP
Z 13 DTH
Z 13 DTJ
Trailer towing is not permitted for
Corsavans with tyre size 215/45 R 17.

Sales designation – see pages 268, 269.
If the permitted rear axle load is exceeded,
a maximum speed of 60 mph (100 km/h)
applies. If lower national maximum speeds
are specified for trailer towing, they must
be complied with.
See the identification plate or vehicle
documents for permissible axle loads.

load consists of the weight of the roof rack
