Do you want to know what the Fiat E-Doblo Cargo payload is? Perhaps you're here to find out the maximum weight that the E-Doblo Cargo van can carry?
This is the place to get all the answers you need on van payloads for the Fiat E-Doblo Cargo and other important questions on the Fiat E-Doblo Cargo such as its towing capacity, the front and rear axle weights as well as the kerb weight - that the overall weight - of the van.
So dive into our Fiat E-Doblo Cargo payload guide to find out what is the payload for the electric E-Doblo van.
The Fiat E-Doblo Cargo is available in two sizes, the smaller of the two vans has the greater payload with a carrying capacity of up to 780kg. That’s the total weight permitted to be carried by an L1 short-wheelbase (SWB) size van. The total payload also excludes the weight of a driver.
Because the E-Doblo Cargo has a fairly large 50kWh battery it takes up a considerable amount of payload for the electric van compared to the Fiat Doblo payload diesel van's carrying capacity. The diesel Doblo van with the largest payload can carry as much as 200kg more weight than the equivalent electric van. If you're very likely to need the highest possible payload then an electric van may not be the most suitable van for you at the moment.
Larger vans have smaller payloads, because of the additional weight need to make a longer body. The larger body of a long-wheelbase (LWB) van means that the E-Doblo Cargo payload is slightly less than the smaller version. The long-wheelbase L2 version of the Fiat E-Doblo Cargo has a payload of up to 753kg. This is the overall payload allowance of the van minus the weight of a driver.
Because of its electric batteries, the E-Doblo Cargo is quite heavy with a kerb weight of 1665kg for the lightest van. This is the total weight of the entry-level model.
If you opt for a higher trim level with more equipment fitted, that will increase the kerb weight. It will also probably reduce the payload – although that depends on the plated weight of the van (more on that in a minute).
The higher trim level has an increased kerb weight of 1682kg.
Increasing the size of the van – specifying it as a long-wheelbase L2 model – also adds to the kerb weight. The larger van in entry-level trim is 1707kg, while the top option model is slightly heavier at 1724kg.
The front axle of the Fiat E-Doblo Cargo is capable of taking 1200kg. This is the maximum plated weight for the front axle on all models.
The rear axle of the Fiat E-Doblo Cargo is capable of taking 1400kg. This is the maximum plated weight for the rear axle on all models.
The towing capacity for the E-Doblo Cargo is 750kg for an unbraked trailer. But electric vans are heavier they're not really designed to have high Gross Train Weight masses so even with a braked trailer, the E-Doblo doesn't get a increase in towing capacity. With a braked trailer the E-Doblo has a towing capacity of 750kg.
The gross vehicle weight is the total of the kerbweight plus the payload. It's the figure at which the manufacturer has decided is the safe maximum weight for the vehicle to operate at.
In order to ensure that the larger (and heavier) Fiat E-Doblo vans aren't disadvantaged and end up with a smaller payload, Fiat has increased the GVW of some of its vans. The specific GVM varies according to the trim level and the body size, but the E-Doblo has a range from 2,390kg to 2,410kg.
When carrying a significant amount of weight in your van is to very important that you remain on the right side of the law. While we hope our guide is useful and can give you a good indication of how much weight your E-Doblo Cargo van can carry the best way to find out how much payload your van has is to check the vehicle plate.
This is a small metal plate (or more commonly now a sticker) usually found on the inside of the driver or passenger side door that lists the GVW, payload and front and rear axle weights. On some occasions you can find it under the bonnet. Our advice... always check the plate.
