When driving
(6)If your vehicle will be towing a tr
ailer, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Cons ult this manual to determine how
this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your
vehicle.
(  P. 372)
Scion does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Your
vehicle is not designed for trailer towing.
Example on your vehicle
Cargo capacity
Total load capacity
When 2 people with the combined weight of 366 lb. (166 kg) are
riding in your vehicle, which has a total load capacity of 699 lb. (317
kg), the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity will be
as follows:
699 lb. - 366 lb. = 333 lb. (317 kg -166 kg = 151 kg)
In this condition, if 2 more pa ssengers with the combined weight of
258 lb. (117 kg) get on, the availa ble cargo and luggage load will be
reduced as follows:
333 lb. - 258 lb. = 75 lb. (151 kg - 117 kg = 34 kg)
As shown in the example above , if the number of occupants
increases, the cargo and luggage load will be reduced by an amount
that equals the increased weight du e to the additional occupants. In
other words, if an increase in th e 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.
