Kerb weight is one of the most basic but an important specification of any vehicle, be it a two-wheeler or a four-wheeler. In simple terms, it is nothing but the weight of the vehicle in running condition. The American manufacturers use the term 'Curb Weight' for the purpose.
Kerb weight includes all factory-installed equipment, all essential consumables for operation like coolant oil, motor oil, air conditioning refrigerant, transmission oil, a 90% full fuel tank and not including any passengers or cargo. This is the actual weight of a vehicle assigned by its manufacturer.
The actual weight of a car is known as the gross vehicle mass or weight (GVW). It refers to the current weight of a vehicle will all of its parts and everything inside it including cargo and passengers.
On the other hand, the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) indicates the highest load that an automobile can carry. The number is assigned by the manufacturer and it does not change under any circumstance. It includes the weight of all the components of the car, driver, passengers, cargo, fuel, and other things.
