What is the maximum weight that my vehicle can carry?
YourMechanic
You should never exceed the maximum weight recommended for your vehicle, or else your car may not be able to operate properly. The maximum weight that your car can carry is listed on the Tire Label, which is on the B-Pillar near the door latch, or on the end of the driver’s door. Tip The maximum weight allowed includes both the passenger weight and the cargo weight.
