Damage caused by towing a following: trailer is not covered by the warranty. Tires Maximum Maximum Towing Tongue Capacity* Weight** 245/45R19 110 SAE Class SAE Class V / Y III – 4960 III – 500 lbs lbs (2250 (227 kg) kg) 275/45R20 110 SAE Class SAE Class V / Y III – 4960 III – 500 lbs lbs (2250 (227 kg) kg) 285/35R22 106 SAE Class II SAE Class II W – 3480 lbs – 350 lbs (1580 kg) (158 kg) *Tesla recommends a separate braking system on trailers with a loaded weight of over 1000 lbs (450 kg). The braking system must be appropriate for the weight of the trailer. Follow the instructions provided by the trailer brake manufacturer to ensure that trailer brakes are properly installed, adjusted, and maintained. **The tongue weight is the downward force that the weight of the trailer exerts on the hitch. It must not be less than 10% of the trailer load. Carrying a significant amount of equipment, passengers, or cargo in the tow vehicle can reduce the tongue weight it can handle, which also reduces the maximum towing capacity. Maximum towing capacity is calculated assuming the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) is not exceeded. The GVWR is printed on the Vehicle Certification Label (see Vehicle Certification Label on page 200). Note: If the towing capacity on the hitch label conflicts with the information provided in this owner's manual, this owner's manual takes precedence. Warning: Do not overload the vehicle or trailer. Doing so can cause poor performance, vehicle damage and loss of vehicle control, resulting in serious injury. Warning: Do not use the trailer hitch to tow/transport Model X.
