load capacity TESLA MODEL Y 2020 Owner´s Manual

Load Capacity Labeling
It is important to understand how much weight your
Model Y can safely carry. This weight is called the
vehicle capacity weight and includes the weight of all
occupants, cargo and any additional equipment added to your
Model Y since it was manufactured.
Two labels attached to Model Y indicate how much
weight
Model Y can safely carry.
Both labels are visible on the door pillar when the front door is open.
NOTE: If your Model Y is fitted with Tesla accessory
wheels or tires, your
Model Y may include an additional
label indicating that load capacity may
differ from what
is stated on the label. If this is the case, instead of referring to the label, refer to the Owner

CAUTION: To prevent damage, never load Model
Y so that it is heavier than GVWR or exceeds the
individual GAWR weights.
Calculating Load Limits
1.
Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs
or XXX kg” on the “Tire and Loading Information” label.
2.
Determine the combined weight of all occupants that will ride in the vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined weight of the occupants
from XXX lbs or XXX kg (see Step 1).
4.
The resulting figure equals the available cargo load
capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount equals
1400 lbs (635 kg) and there will be
five 150 lb
(68 kg) passengers in the vehicle, the amount of available cargo capacity is 650 lbs (1400 

BeadThe inner edge of a tire that is shaped to fit to the rim and form an air tight seal. The
bead is constructed of steel wires which are wrapped, or reinforced, by the ply cords.Cold Tire PressureThe air pressure in a tire that has been standing in excess of three hours, or driven for less than one mile.Curb WeightThe weight of a standard vehicle, including any optional equipment fitted, and with the
correct
fluid levels.
Gross Vehicle WeightThe maximum permissible weight of a vehicle with driver, passengers, load, luggage,
and equipment.kPa (kilo pascal)A metric unit used to measure pressure. One kilo pascal equals approximately 0.145 psi.Maximum Inflation
Pressure
The maximum pressure to which the tire should be inflated. This pressure is given on
the tire side wall in psi (lbf/in2).
CAUTION: This pressure marked on the tire is the maximum allowed by the tire
manufacturer. It is not the pressure Tesla recommends using for Model Y.
Maximum Loaded
Vehicle WeightThe sum of curb weight, accessory weight, vehicle capacity weight, and production options weight.Production Options
WeightThe combined weight of options installed which weigh in excess of 3 lb more than the standard items that they replaced, and are not already considered in curb or accessory
weights.PSI (lbf/in2)Pounds per square inch (the unit used to measure tire pressure).Recommended Tire
Inflation Pressure
Tire inflation pressure, established by Tesla, which is based on the type of tires that are
mounted on the vehicle at the factory. This information can be found on the Tire and
Loading Information label located on the door pillar.RimThe metal support for a tire, or tire and tube, upon which the tire beads are seated.Vehicle Capacity
WeightThe number of seats multiplied by 150 lbs plus the rated amount of load/luggage.
Load Carrying Definitions
Normal occupant weight68 kilograms (150 lbs) times the number of occupants specified in the second column
of the tables for calculating load limits (see
Vehicle Loading on page 179).
