passengers that will be riding
in your vehicle.

Subtract the combined
weight of the driver and
passengers from XXX kg or

and luggage load capacity.

amount equals 1400 lbs. and
there will be five 150 lb
passengers in your vehicle,
the amount of available cargo
and luggage load capacity is
650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x
150) = 650 lbs.)

calculated in Step 4.

If your vehicle will be towing
a trailer, load from your trailer

and luggage load capacity of
your vehicle.

This vehicle is neither designed
nor intended to tow a trailer.
