3.2.2 Actual weighed mass of your vehicle and remaining load capacity
q
To determine the remaining load capacity, it is important that you
know the actual weighed mass of your tractor vehicle. Upon
completion of your vehicle, therefore, we determine the actual
mass of your vehicle for the first time by weighing it at the end of
the line. This includes the mass in running order plus the weight
of all ordered and factory-fitted optional equipment.
You can use this actual weighed mass to calculate the remaining
load capacity for baggage or other accessories.
Example:
Specification Value
Technically permissible mass 3500 kg
Actual weighed mass of your vehicle - 3000 kg
Mass of the passengers - 225 kg (3 x 75 kg)
Remaining load capacity = 275 kg
NOTE
Please note that the factory calculation of the
remaining load capacity for the mass of the driver
(included in the actual weighed mass of your vehicle)
and the mass of the passengers is based on a
generalized mass of 75 kg per seat. Due to deviating
body weights, however, the actual remaining load
capacity of your vehicle may vary.
