Payload is the combination weight of
cargo and passengers that the vehicle is
designed to carry. The maximum payload
for your vehicle can be found on the Tire
and Load Information label on the driver's
door frame or door pillar. Look for “THE
COMBINATION WEIGHT OF
OCCUPANTS AND CARGO SHOULD
NEVER EXCEED XXX kg or XXX lbs”
for your maximum payload. The payload
listed on the tire label is the maximum
payload for the vehicle as built by the
assembly plant. If any aftermarket or
dealer installed equipment has been
installed on the vehicle, the weight of the
equipment must be subtracted from the
payload listed on the tire label in order to
be accurate.
SAMPLE
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.
