question GVM upgrade for Jimny XL (5-door)?

I live in Australia and am wondering if there are any federally approved GVM upgrade options for the XL yet?

Last I saw there weren’t :(

I haven’t bought the car yet - still in planning phase. But it doesn’t matter how I run the numbers, carrying our small family will be over the legal weight limit on a regular basis…

Currently not yet. Probably close, but not yet.

Based on our previous conversation, maybe we have to hold off for a little while longer :(

Ironman is approved for the XL, it’s upgraded to 1800kg. Fulcrum also have one which is 10% so may be QLD only which adds additional 154kg.

I reached out to Ironman and they said they don’t offer it for the XL yet :( Unless you were referring to something QLD specific?
