SAE J2807

SAE J2807 is a safety and durability standard used by automakers to evaluate how well a vehicle's towing capacity and entire drivetrain system perform under real-world conditions. It tests factors like vehicle acceleration, stopping, and handling when towing heavy loads, ensuring consistent performance across different models. This standard helps consumers understand the reliable maximum weight a vehicle can safely tow, taking into account factors like vehicle size, engine power, and transmission durability. Ultimately, SAE J2807 promotes safety, consistency, and transparency in vehicle towing capabilities.
