Subaru Outback: Vehicle load limit – how to determine
The load capacity of your vehicle is determined by weight, not by available cargo
space. The load limit of your vehicle is shown on the vehicle placard attached to
the driver’s side B-pillar. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs” on your vehicle’s placard.
The vehicle placard also shows seating capacity of your vehicle. The total load
capacity includes the total weight of driver and all passengers and their belongings,
any cargo, any optional equipment such as a trailer hitch, roof rack or bike carrier,
etc., and the tongue load of a trailer. Therefore cargo capacity can be calculated
by the following method.
Cargo capacity = Load limit − (total weight of occupants + total weight of optional
equipment + tongue load of a trailer (if applicable))
For towing capacity information and weight limits, refer to “Trailer towing”
F8-19.
