Cargo and luggage
Capacity and distribution
Cargo capacity depends on the total weight of the occupants.
(Cargo capacity) = (Total load capacity) — (Total weight of occupants)
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit—
(1) Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s
placard.
(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
Take notice of the following information about storage precautions, cargo
capacity and load.
l Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk whenever possible. Be sure all
items are secured in place.
l Be careful to keep the vehicle level. Placing the weight as far for-
ward as possible helps maintain vehicle balance.
l For better fuel economy, do not carry unnecessary weight.
