Payload capacity is a crucial specification for any vehicle, but especially important for trucks, vans, and aircraft. It refers to the maximum weight a vehicle can carry in passengers and cargo. Exceeding the payload capacity can lead to several problems. Here's a breakdown:
Definition: Payload Capacity represents the difference between a vehicle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and its Curb Weight. In other words, it's the total weight you can add on top of the vehicle's weight.
Importance: Understanding and adhering to payload capacity is vital for safety and performance. Overloading a vehicle can compromise:
How to Find Payload Capacity: The payload capacity is typically found on a sticker located inside the driver's side doorjamb. It may also be listed in the vehicle's owner's manual.
Calculating Available Payload: If you plan to add aftermarket accessories (e.g., bed liners, toolboxes) to your vehicle, remember to subtract their weight from the stated payload capacity to determine the available payload for passengers and cargo. Also consider the weight of the driver and any passengers when calculating remaining Available Payload.
