Load Capacity Labeling
It is important to understand how much
weight your Model S can safely carry. This
weight is called the vehicle capacity weight
and includes the weight of all occupants,
cargo and any additional equipment added to
your Model S since it was manufactured.
There are two labels attached to Model S that
state how much weight it can safely carry.
These labels are located on the center door
pillar and are visible when the driver’s door is
open:
1. Tire and Loading Information label
2. Vehicle Certification label
Warning:
Overloading Model S has an
adverse effect on braking and handling,
which can compromise your safety or
damage Model S.
Caution: Never load more than 300 lbs
(136 kg) in the front trunk. Doing so can
cause damage.
Caution: Never store large amounts of
liquid in Model S. 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

double check all tires to ensure they are
