What is the curb weight of the Chery Flagcloud 1?
2 Answers
The curb weight of the Chery Flagcloud 1 is 990㎏. Introduction to curb weight: The curb weight of a car, also previously referred to as 'empty weight,' refers to the weight of the car when it is fully equipped according to the factory's technical conditions (such as spare tires, tools, etc.) and all fluids are filled. This is an important design indicator for a car. This indicator must be both advanced and practical. It is closely related to the car's design level, manufacturing level, and industrialization level. Under the same model conditions, optimized design methods, superior production levels, and high industrialization levels will result in a lower curb weight. Relationship between curb weight and gross weight: Different vehicle types have different calculation methods for gross weight. For passenger cars, the gross weight equals the curb weight plus the driver's weight, passengers' weight, and luggage weight. For buses, the gross weight equals the curb weight plus the driver's weight, passengers' weight, luggage weight, and accessory weight. For trucks, the gross weight equals the curb weight plus the driver's weight, assistant's weight, and luggage weight.
My Chery Fulwin 1 has been running for several years, with a weight of around 1,100 kg—that’s the curb weight listed in the manual when I bought it. It’s quite easy to drive, nimble in city traffic, and convenient for parking, but it feels a bit floaty on the highway, so extra caution is needed. The lighter weight helps with fuel efficiency; my average fuel consumption is around 6 liters per 100 km. However, when fully loaded with passengers or luggage, the power feels a bit weak. I’d advise checking the manual when buying a car—don’t just rely on the salesperson’s pitch. Curb weight directly impacts safety and fuel efficiency. During regular maintenance, I always ask the mechanic to check tire wear. This car isn’t the toughest, so lightweight vehicles require extra attention to upkeep. Overall, the Fulwin 1 is a great entry-level option—economical and practical.
