How does the Hyundai Tucson’s payload capacity hold up under heavy loads typical in Pakistan?

The Tucson’s payload capacity is usually around 450-500 kg, including passengers and cargo. Given Pakistani road conditions and frequent heavy loading habits, does this capacity often get exceeded? What are the effects of overloading on vehicle performance and safety?

The Tucson’s payload capacity, generally around 450-500 kg including passengers and cargo, is designed for normal usage. In Pakistan, overloading beyond recommended limits is common due to carrying additional passengers o r goods. Overloading stresses the suspension, brakes, and engine, leading to accelerated wear and compromised safety. It can also reduce fuel efficiency and affect handling. Owners are advised to respect payload limits and distribute weight evenly to maintain performance and safety.
