What does a curb weight of 1490kg mean?
1 Answers
A curb weight of 1490kg means the empty weight of the vehicle when it leaves the factory is 1490kg. Curb weight includes various tools, parts, and fluids added to the vehicle, and is the weight of the vehicle without passengers. Curb weight is not the total weight of the vehicle. Below are some related explanations: 1. The total weight of a vehicle includes the curb weight, the weight of the driver and passengers, and the weight of any luggage carried in the vehicle. These weights combined make up the total weight of the vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with other accessories, their weight should also be included. 2. Generally speaking, for the same model, the more advanced the production process, the more optimized the design method, and the higher the level of industrialization, the lower the curb weight. Of course, this is on the premise that the various performances of the vehicle, especially safety performance, are guaranteed. The specific reason is that the use of high-strength steel and metal materials requires the factory to have sufficiently advanced processing technology. The more high-strength steel is used, the lower the total weight of the vehicle.
