Nissan Navara: slide-on camper payload

Name: Nissan Navara Australian vehicle mass and payload records
Creator: Beyond RV

Nissan Navara has a recorded GVM of 3,190 kg. Kerb mass is 2,126 kg to 2,226 kg; payload calculated as GVM minus that mass is 964 kg to 1,064 kg across 4 recorded variants. After a stated 390 kg allowance for occupants, accessories and gear, the remaining camper load allowance is 574 kg to 674 kg. [1]

What the allowance assumes

We subtract 160 kg for occupants, 150 kg for accessories and 80 kg for luggage and gear: 390 kg total. These are assumptions, not measured weights. Published mass bases differ; some already include a driver or fuel. Avoid counting those twice when entering your actual weights.

This is remaining mass allowance, not an approved camper dry weight. Allow for any excluded tray or body, mounting frame, water and camper equipment. No camper fitment verdict is available without verified camper mass, dimensions and centre of gravity.

Change the assumptions in the weight calculator. Enter your occupant, accessory and gear weights there; these assumptions are not automatically filled.

Recorded variants, highest calculated payload first

Model years: 2026. Match your exact variant and mass basis. “Verified” describes the research record, not approval for a camper.

Rear axle headroom cannot be calculated from these records: the rear GAWR is a limit, but the kerb front/rear axle split is not recorded. A weighbridge measurement of each axle is needed.

GVM upgrade arithmetic

If GCM stays unchanged, each extra kilogram of loaded vehicle mass leaves one kilogram less under GCM for a trailer. The Nissan Navara table uses published GCM minus hypothetical GVM; it does not certify an upgrade or override the published towing limit. No certified upgrade figures are recorded. The increments below are illustrative scenarios, not available or approved upgrades. They assume the vehicle is loaded to the stated hypothetical GVM and GCM stays unchanged.

A negative result means the hypothetical vehicle mass already exceeds GCM. A positive result is not permission to tow that mass: the manufacturer's towing rating, towbar, towball load, axle limits and actual certification also apply.

Nissan Navara payload questions

What is the payload of a Nissan Navara?

How much can a Nissan Navara carry with a slide-on camper?

The calculated allowance is 574 kg to 674 kg after 160 kg for occupants, 150 kg for accessories and 80 kg for gear. Any tray or body excluded from the recorded mass, camper water and camper equipment still have to be allowed for. This is not a camper fitment verdict.

Does a GVM upgrade reduce a Nissan Navara's towing capacity?

Check your actual weights in the calculator

This tool provides an estimate only. Final suitability depends on your exact vehicle variant, compliance plate, manufacturer specifications, towbar rating, axle limits, tyre ratings, accessories, real loaded weights and certified weighbridge results. Beyond RV weighs your vehicle at the factory before build, and those figures decide the final answer.
