Correct answer
20 tonnes.
20 tonnes. Annex IX of the General Vehicle Regulations distinguishes two-axle Class I urban buses from Classes II and III, whose general limit is 19.50 tonnes. Also observe the mass authorised in the vehicle documents and applicable axle limits; a general 20-tonne limit does not allow exceeding a lower vehicle authorisation.
Legal basis: annex IX RGV
