Vehicle Labels
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 the front
door pillar on the driver's side of the vehicle.

1. Tire and Loading Information Label
2. Vehicle Certification Label
WARNING: Overloading Cybertruck has an adverse effect on braking and handling, which can compromise
your safety or cause damage.
CAUTION: Never store large amounts of liquid in Cybertruck. 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 tires.
• The cold inflation pressures for the original front and rear tires. These pressures are recommended to optimize
ride and handling characteristics.

Owner's Manual

240

Specifications

Never change this label, even if you use different tires in the future.
NOTE: If Cybertruck is loaded to its full capacity, double check all tires to ensure they are inflated to their
recommended pressure levels (see Maintaining Tire Pressures on page 212).
WARNING: Tire pressures printed on the Tire and Loading Information label DO NOT APPLY to towing. When
towing, tire pressures must be increased. For information about the tire pressures required when towing, refer
to see Towing a Trailer on page 132.
Vehicle Certification Label
WARNING: The Vehicle Certification label specifies the weight ratings for Cybertruck based on the tires that
were installed at time of manufacture and the tire pressures indicated on the Tire and Loading Information
label. However, the weight ratings will change if you change the factory-installed tires or inflate tires to a
pressure that differs from those shown on the Tire and Loading Information label.
The Vehicle Certification label provides:
• GVWR - Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. The maximum allowable total mass of Cybertruck. This is calculated as the
weight of Cybertruck 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.

Canada:
CAUTION: To prevent damage, never load Cybertruck so that it is heavier than GVWR or exceeds the individual
GAWR weights.

Roof Racks
Cybertruck supports the use of Tesla-approved roof racks. Roof racks can be installed over the roof, over the bed, or
both. To install roof racks, you must use only roof rack systems that have been approved by Tesla. You can find the
roof rack instructions in the box or on the Tesla Shop.
Maximum Load on Roof Racks: 220 lb (100 kg) per 2-crossbar set. For example, a 2-crossbar set placed on the roof
has a maximum load of 220 lb. An additional 2-crossbar set placed over the cargo bed also has a maximum load of
220 lb (100 kg).

241

Owner's Manual

Specifications

See Carrying Accessories and Crossbars on page 139 for more information.
CAUTION: Failure to use the correct roof racks and follow the instructions can cause significant damage.
WARNING: When loading the roof racks, distribute the load evenly and maintain a low center of gravity.
Loaded vehicles, with higher centers of gravity, may handle differently than unloaded vehicles. Take extra
precautions, such as slower speeds and increased stopping distance, when driving heavily loaded roof racks.

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: The powered frunk and the cargo bed 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 Cybertruck 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.

Cautions and Warnings
NOTE: Drive cautiously when Cybertruck is carrying a large load. Increase braking distance, reduce speed when
making sharp turns, and avoid abrupt steering. Failure to drive cautiously increases the risk of losing control which
can result in property damage, personal injury, and death.
NOTE: The loading capacity of your vehicle is limited either by how much space is available (volume capacity) or by
how much weight the vehicle can carry (payload capacity). When you have loaded Cybertruck to its maximum
weight capacity, do not add more cargo, even if there is space available. Overloading, or improper loading, can
contribute to properly damage, personal injury, or death.
