Load Capacity Labeling
It is important to understand how much weight your
Model S can safely carry. This weight is called the vehicle
capacity weight and includes the weight of all
occupants, cargo and any additional equipment added
to your
Model S since it was manufactured.
Two labels attached to the center door pillar indicate
how much weight Model S can safely carry. Labels are
visible when the front door is open.
