2-5. Driving information From this condition, if 3 more passengers with the combined weight of 388 lb. (176 kg) get on, the available cargo and luggage load will be reduced as follows: • With third seats 834 lb. - 388 lb. = 446 lb. (378 kg - 176 kg = 202 kg) • Without third seats 634 lb. - 388 lb. = 246 lb. (288 kg - 176 kg = 112 kg) As shown in the above example, if the number of occupants increases, the cargo and luggage load equaling the combined weight of the occupants who got on later, by an amount. In other words, if an increase in the number of occupants causes an excess of the total load capacity (combined weight of occupants plus cargo and luggage load), you must reduce the cargo and luggage on your vehicle.
