### Vehicle Rating

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important: Please ensure your vehicle profile is complete, and you are connected to the internet to get a vehicle capability rating.**
{% endhint %}

The vehicle rating shows which tracks are suited to different types of vehicles. It’s based on track difficulty, terrain, and conditions.

* Use it to check whether a trail matches your vehicle’s capability
* Higher ratings may require modifications or recovery gear
* If you’re unsure, start with lower-rated tracks for a safer experience

This way, the vehicle rating helps guide you to trails your vehicle is best suited for, so you can plan with confidence.
