Payload – is the combined weight of cargo and passengers that the vehicle
is carrying. The maximum payload for your vehicle can be found on the Tire
Label on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s door (vehicles exported
outside the US and Canada may not have a Tire Label). Look for “THE
COMBINED WEIGHT OF OCCUPANTS AND CARGO SHOULD
NEVER EXCEED XXX kg OR XXX lb.” for 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 authorized-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
determine the new payload.
WARNING: The appropriate loading capacity of your vehicle can be
limited either by volume capacity (how much space is available) or
by payload capacity (how much weight the vehicle should carry). Once
you have reached the maximum payload of your vehicle, do not add more
cargo, even if there is space available. Overloading or improperly loading
your vehicle can contribute to loss of vehicle control and vehicle rollover.
