CARGO

Cargo Weight

 includes all weight

added to the Base Curb Weight,
including cargo and optional
equipment.
 
The cargo weight limit decreases
depending on the number of vehicle
occupants. The cargo weight limit can
be calculated by subtracting the total
weight of the vehicle occupants from
the “combination weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed” value
on the tire label.
 
Examples: Based on a single occupant
weight of 68 kg (150 lbs), and a value
of 385 kg (849 lbs) for the
“combination weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed”:
The cargo weight limit with one
occupant is 385 kg (849 lbs) 

－

 68 kg

(150 lbs) = 317 kg (699 lbs)
The cargo weight limit with two
occupants is 385 kg (849 lbs) 

－

 (68 ×

2) kg ( (150 × 2) lbs) = 249 kg (549
lbs)
If the weight of the occupant increases,
the cargo weight limit decreases by
that much.
 

GAW (Gross Axle Weight)

 is the total

weight placed on each axle (front and
rear) - including vehicle curb weight
and all payload.
 

GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating)

 is

the maximum allowable weight that
can be carried by a single axle (front or
rear).

 These numbers are shown on

the Safety Compliance Certification
Label located on the driver's door
frame or door pillar. The total load on
each axle must never exceed its
GAWR.

GVW

GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight)

 is the

Vehicle Curb Weight + cargo +
passengers.
 

GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)

is the maximum allowable weight of
the fully loaded vehicle (including all
options, equipment, passengers and
cargo).

 The GVWR is shown on the

Safety Compliance Certification Label
located on the driver's door frame or
door pillar. The GVW must never
exceed the GVWR.
