Example: step 1 to 3
The following table shows examples on how to calculate total and cargo load capacities with varying seating configurations and number and size of occupants. The following examples use a load limit of 1500 lbs. This is for illustration purposes only. Make sure you are using the actual load limit for your vehicle stated on the vehicle’s Tire and Loading Information placard.
The higher the weight of all the occupants, the smaller the maximum load for luggage.
Further information can be found under "Towing a trailer".
