2027 KZ Sportster X22X

KZ lists the 2027 Sportster X 22X at 7,940 lb unloaded (UVW), with a GVWR of 12,000 lb, a cargo carrying capacity of 3,950 lb and a dry hitch weight of 1,210 lb. KZ’s own figures do not add up — a conflict, stated not resolved: UVW plus cargo capacity is 11,890 lb, against a GVWR of 12,000 lb. All three are printed as KZ gives them and none is corrected; the federal label on the trailer is the one to trust.

It is 28' 5" long and 12' 6" high with the air conditioner, with 94 gal fresh, 76 gal grey and 40 gal black tanks. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank uses roughly 780 lb of the cargo capacity before anything else is loaded.

Among the 7 Sportster X floorplans KZ lists for 2027 with a published weight, it is number 2 by unloaded weight, in a range from 7,080 lb (20X) to 14,620 lb (3914X). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from KZ’s own floorplan page for the Sportster X 22X, whose floorplan drawing KZ labels 2027. KZ notes that its UVW reflects a rolling average for the model and that your trailer will vary with optional equipment.
