Tesla Model Y: 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 Y 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.

Example Load Limit Calculations

The cargo weight should be distributed as evenly as possible between the front and rear trunks.

CAUTION: Never load more than 110 lbs (50 kg) in the front trunk. Doing so can cause damage.

CAUTION: Never load more than 176 lbs (80 kg) in the lower tub compartment of the rear trunk or more than 397 lbs (180 kg) on the upper floor. Doing so can cause damage.

     Flat Spots

    If Model Y is stationary for a long period, tires can form flat spots. When Model Y is driven, these flat spots cause a vibration which gradually disappears as the tires warm up and regain their original shape. To minimize flat spots during storage, inflate tires to the maximum pressure indicat

     Using Sentry Mode

    When Sentry Mode is turned on, the cameras and sensors remain powered on and ready to record suspicious activity around your vehicle when Model Y is locked and in Park. To store and retrieve Sentry Mode footage, ensure that Dashcam is on and a properly formatted USB flash drive is inserted into
