Loading Cargo
The maximum load you can carry in
your Acura is 400 Ibs (185 kg). It
includes the total weight of the
driver, the passenger, their
belongings, and any accessorie. This
400 Ibs (185 kg) figure is shown as
the Vehicle Capacity Weight on the
tire information label attached to the
driver's doorjamb.
To figure out how much cargo you
can carry:
Figure the total "occupant weight"
you will be transporting. To do this,
multiply the number of people
(driver and passenger) by 150 Ibs
(70 kg).
Subtract this number from the
Vehicle Capacity Weight (400 Ibs/
185
kg).
This final number is the total weight
of cargo you can load in or on the car.
With two occupants (a driver and a
passenger), the maximum
recommended weight for cargo is
100 Ibs (45 kg).
Where you store this cargo, and how
well you secure it, are just as
important as how much it weighs.
Make sure you load cargo so it will
not shift while driving. Items stored
in the cargo area should be stored as
far forward as possible.
