Toyota bZ4X Owner's Manual: Vehicle Load Limits

Toyota bZ4X Owner's Manual / Driving / Vehicle Load Limits

Vehicle load limits include total load capacity, seating capacity, TWR (Trailer Weight Rating), and cargo capacity.

Total load capacity is defined as the combined weight of occupants, cargo, and luggage in the vehicle.

Seating capacity refers to the maximum number of occupants that the vehicle can safely carry, based on an estimated average weight of 150 lb (68 kg) per person.

Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle.

Cargo capacity may increase or decrease depending on the weight and number of occupants. As the number of occupants increases, the available cargo and luggage load capacity is reduced by the additional weight. In other words, if the total load (occupants plus cargo and luggage) exceeds the vehicle's capacity, you must reduce the amount of cargo and luggage accordingly.

Total load capacity and seating capacity

These details are also described on the tire and loading information label on your vehicle.

Warning:

Overloading the Vehicle

Do not overload the vehicle. Excessive loading may not only damage the tires but also degrade the steering and braking performance, which can lead to an accident.

Trailer Towing

Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Toyota also does not advise the installation of a tow hitch or the use of a tow hitch carrier for items such as a wheelchair, scooter, or bicycle. Your vehicle is not designed for trailer towing or for the use of tow hitch mounted carriers.

Proper adherence to these load limits is essential for maintaining optimal vehicle performance and safety. By managing your vehicle's load correctly, you enhance driving stability and prolong the life of critical components, ensuring a safer and more efficient driving experience.
