frontal area

  • Frontal area of a vehicle can be a contributing factor when determining the size of trailer a vehicle can tow
  • Larger frontal area will add drag, thus reducing the vehicle’s ability to tow a trailer
  • For many vehicles, frontal area restrictions limit a trailer’s size to a specific Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR)
  • The frontal area is also a determining factor in selecting an incomplete vehicle that complies with emissions requirements.
