The curb weight of your car is the amount it weighs when it is parked and empty.
The gross vehicle weight (GVW) of your car is calculated by adding the standard curb weight of the vehicle to the manufacturer's predictions for luggage weight and passenger weight.
If you've been trying to learn about the vehicle curb weight of your car and you're getting confused, you're not alone.
The problem is that people assume that if they buy that model, then the base weight reported at the dealership is the same thing as the curb weight of their new car.
Vehicle curb weight varies not only from one make and model to another; it also fluctuates depending on what sort of accessories and add-ons you've installed on the car.
