• Stamped on a plate located at the top of the dashboard. This can be seen by looking through the windshield on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
• Printed on the Vehicle Certification label, located on the door pillar. Can be seen when the driver’s door is open.
  
  

Emission Control Label

The emission control label is located on the opening face of the liftgate.

NOTE: For vehicles with a model year of 2022 or newer, the emission control label is now located on the inside of the front hood and may not match the label shown.

Vehicle Labeling

It is important to understand your vehicle’s original tire sizes and pressures, and the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) and GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating). This information can be found on two labels attached to Model X.

1. Tire and Loading Information Label
2. Vehicle Certification Label

NOTE: Towing capability is available only if Model X is equipped with the Towing Package.

WARNING: Overloading Model X hurts braking and handling, which can compromise your safety or cause damage.

CAUTION: Never store large amounts of liquid in Model X. A significant spill can cause electrical components to malfunction.

Tire and Loading Information Label

The Tire and Loading Information label provides:

• The maximum number of occupant seating positions.
• The maximum vehicle capacity weight.
• The size of the original tyres.
• The cold inflation pressures for the original front and rear tyres. These pressures are recommended to optimize ride and handling characteristics.

Label Format:

Never change this label, even if you use different tyres in the future.

NOTE: If Model X is loaded to its full capacity, double-check all tyres to ensure they are inflated to their recommended pressure levels.

WARNING: Tire pressures printed on the Tire and Loading Information label DO NOT APPLY to towing. When towing, tyre pressures must be increased. For information about the tyre pressures required when towing, see Towing and Accessories on page 104.

Vehicle Certification Label

The Vehicle Certification label provides:

• • GVWR – Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. The maximum allowable total mass of Model X. This is calculated as the weight of Model X equipped with the heaviest factory selectable options, all passengers, fluids, and cargo.
• GAWR FRT and GAWR RR – Gross Axle Weight Rating for the front and rear axles. The GAWR is the maximum distributed weight that each axle can support.

United States:
Canada:
Mexico:

CAUTION: To prevent damage, never load Model X 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 ‑ 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs) or 295 kg (635 ‑ 340 (5 x 68) = 295 kg).
5. Determine the combined cargo weight being loaded on the vehicle. That weight must not exceed the available cargo load capacity calculated in Step 4.

WARNING: Trunks are the preferred places to carry objects. In a collision, or during hard braking and sharp turns, loose items in the cabin could injure occupants.

Example Load Limit Calculations

How much cargo Model X can carry depends on the number and weight of passengers. The following calculated load limit examples assume passengers weigh 150 lbs (68 kg). If passengers weigh more or less, available cargo weight decreases or increases respectively.

Driver and one passenger

Description	Total
Vehicle capacity weight	954 lbs (433 kg)
Subtract occupant weight (2 x 150 lbs/68 kg)	300 lbs (136 kg)
Available cargo weight	654 lbs (297 kg)

Driver and four passengers

Description	Total
Vehicle capacity weight	954 lbs (433 kg)
Subtract occupant weight (5 x 150 lbs/68 kg)	750 lbs (340 kg)
Available cargo weight	204 lbs (93 kg)

When carrying cargo, distribute the weight as evenly as possible between the front and rear trunks. For maximum load limits specific to the trunks, see Front Trunk Load Limit on page 39 and Rear Trunk Load Limits on page 37.

Understanding Tire Markings

Laws require tyre manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tyres. This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tyre. It also provides the tyre identification number (TIN) for certification of safety standards and in case of a recall.

1. Tire category: P indicates that the tyre is for passenger vehicles.
2. Tyre width: This 3-digit number is the width (in millimetres) of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.
3. Aspect ratio: This 2-digit number is the sidewall height as a percentage of the tread width. So, if the tread width is 205 mm, and the aspect ratio is 50, the sidewall height is 102 mm.
4. Tyre construction: R indicates that the tire is of Radial ply construction.
5. Wheel diameter: This 2-digit number is the diameter of the wheel rim in inches.
6. Load index: This 2 or 3-digit number is the weight each tyre can support. This number is not always shown.
7. Speed rating: When stated, indicates the maximum speed (in mph) at which the tyre can be used for extended periods. Q=99 mph (160 km/h), R=106 mph (170 km/h), S=112 mph (180 km/h), T=118 mph (190 km/h), U=124 mph (200 km/h), H=130 mph (210 km/h), V=149 mph (240 km/h), W=168 mph (270 km/h), Y=186 mph (300 km/h), (Y)=vehicle’s top speed (exceeds the “Y” rating).
8. Tyre composition and materials: The number of plies in both the tread area and the sidewall area indicates how many layers of rubber-coated material make up the structure of the tire. Information is also provided on the type of materials used.
9. Maximum tyre load: The maximum load which can be carried by the tyre.
10. Maximum permissible inflation pressure: This pressure should not be used for normal driving.
11. U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN): Begins with the letters DOT and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next 2 digits/letters represent the plant code where it was manufactured, and the last 4 digits represent the week and year of manufacture. For example, the number 1712 is used to represent the 17th week of 2012. The other numbers are marketing codes used at the manufacturer’s discretion. This information can be used to contact consumers if a tyre defect requires a recall.
12. Treadwear grade: This number indicates the tyre’s wear rate. The higher the treadwear number is, the longer it should take for the tread to wear down. A tyre rated at 400, for example, lasts twice as long as a tyre rated at 200.
13. Traction grade: Indicates a tyre’s ability to stop on wet roads. A higher graded tyre should allow you to stop your vehicle at a shorter distance than a tyre with a lower grade. Traction is graded from highest to lowest as AA, A, B, and C.
14. Temperature grade: The tyre’s resistance to heat is grade A, B, or C, with A indicating the greatest resistance. This grading is provided for a correctly inflated tyre, which is being used within its speed and loading limits.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading

The following information relates to the tyre grading system developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which grades tyres by tread wear, traction and temperature performance. Tires that have deep tread, and winter tires, are exempt from these marking requirements.
Where applicable, quality grades are found on the tyre’s sidewall between the tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example:

• TREADWEAR 180
• TRACTION AA
• TEMPERATURE A

The quality grades are described next.

NOTE: In addition to the marking requirements, passenger car tyres must conform to Federal Safety Requirements.

Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tyre when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course.
For example, a tyre graded 150 wears one and a half times better on a government test course than a tyre graded 100. The relative performance of tyres depends on the actual conditions of their use, however, and can depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices, road characteristics, and climate.

Traction
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These grades represent a tyre’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tyre marked C might have poor traction performance.

WARNING: Defective tyres are dangerous. Do not drive if a tyre is damaged, excessively worn, or inflated to an incorrect pressure. The safety of the vehicle and occupants can be adversely affected. Check tyres regularly for wear and to ensure there are no cuts, bulges or exposure of the ply/cord structure.

WARNING: The traction grade assigned to the tire is based on straight-ahead braking tests, and does not include: acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning or peak traction characteristics.

Temperature
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tyre’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperatures can cause the tyre to degenerate and reduce tyre life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tyre failure.
Grade C corresponds to the minimum level of performance that all passenger car tyres must meet under the Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel that exceed the minimum requirements.

WARNING: A tyre’s temperature grade is established for a tyre that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tyre failure.
