Welcome To The Caravan Weight Matrix™
Vehicle weight from accessories, cargo load and towing represents a significant factor in the safety and performance of your vehicle. That's why Pedders has developed this world-first Weight Matrix (tm) software to assist in understanding your vehicle weight, each of your tow and load “scenarios” and most importantly the critical impacts of weight.
To use the Pedders Weight Matrix, once you have selected your common tow and load vehicle from the drop down menus here you will be guided through a wizard to “add weight” to your vehicle. via a series of common accessories, loads and towing items Following this process you will be presented with a 4-part report highlighting your load, your remaining capacity, your weight shift and your additional braking distance – all referenced to original base weights for your vehicle.
Please note that the Pedders Weight Matrix is to be used as a guide only and in some instances uses assumptions or estimates to provide information that is as accurate as possible. For exact vehicle weight, a greater level of detail, expert advice and solutions please click here to contact your local participating Pedders Outlet to book your vehicle in for a Pedders Tow and Load Assessment.

Weight is a significant factor in the safety and performance of your vehicle. The common impacts of weight include:
Reduced vehicle “feel” and a “disconnect” between driver input and vehicle reaction (oversteer/understeer).
Reduced suspension travel and the potential of resulting undercar and suspension damage to componentry.
Reduced braking performance, stopping power and longevity plus increased stopping distances.
Reduction of tyre contact with road resulting in reduction of steering responsiveness.
Change to wheel alignment angles including increased and/or premature tyre wear.
Legal and insurance compliance issues resulting from vehicles over gross vehicle mass limits.
All vehicles must operate under the Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) limit to remain legal and roadworthy.

Weight Shift and Weight Balance (or in simple terms where weight sits within a vehicle) is a significant factor in the safety and performance of your vehicle. Common weight balance issues are caused by rear tray and cargo loading and especially towing of caravans and other large items. The common impacts of weight include:
-
Reduced vehicle “feel” and a “disconnect” between driver input and vehicle reaction (oversteer/understeer).
-
Reduced suspension travel and the potential of resulting undercar and suspension damage to componentry.
-
Reduced braking performance, stopping power and longevity plus increased stopping distances.
-
Reduction of tyre contact with road resulting in reduction of steering responsiveness.
-
Change to wheel alignment angles including increased and/or premature tyre wear.
