GVM Upgrade

Optional

OEM GVM only

Use only the GVM recorded on the applicable vehicle approval. A suspension kit alone does not change GVM, axle, GCM or towing ratings. No upgrade eligibility is inferred by this planner.

Confirm the base mass includes its stated fuel and factory equipment, and excludes the passengers and cargo added here. Include extra fuel, water, tow-ball downforce and spare-wheel changes in cargo; do not count any item twice. This planner contains published figures and unverified accessory estimates. An estimate is not a manufacturer-confirmed fitted mass. Check the exact application, net installed mass and approved vehicle limits, then weigh the loaded vehicle. This calculation checks the entered GVM; axle, towing and combination limits require separate checks.

Consider a GVM Upgrade

Your build is approaching the factory GVM limit. A certified GVM upgrade may add significant legal payload — see the GVM Upgrade section below.

Note: No certified GVM upgrade is currently listed for this vehicle. Plan your build carefully and check with your accessory installer for the latest certification options.

Formula for the nerds

loaded mass = confirmed base mass + passengers + cargo + net accessory changes
remaining payload = GVM limit − loaded mass
used payload = loaded mass − kerb weight

GVM is the maximum permitted mass of the loaded vehicle. This planner compares mass only; it does not prove axle compliance or replace a loaded weighbridge measurement.
