Why GVM has become such a hot topic and why it matters to you.

GVM, or gross vehicle mass, has become a hot topic lately as buyers have pointed out the lack of payload in vehicles such as the Jetour T2. In this podcast, we bring in the CEO of the AA, Bobby Ramagwede, to discuss the topic and what happens in an insurance claim when GVM becomes an issue. We further discuss how manufacturers calculate GVM and what tests (or lack thereof) are required for a manufacturer to adjust its GVM.
