请问：关于车身重量的英语

paul.dbyu

经常在车的资料上看到两个单词：GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT和CURT WEIGHT，我猜第一个是车身重量，第2个是什么意思呢？
请明白人指点，谢谢！

wiki说：
Curb weight (US) or Kerb weight (UK) is the total weight of a vehicle with standard equipment, all necessary operating consumables (e.g. motor oil and coolant), a full tank of fuel, while not loaded with either passengers or cargo.

Here is something i found for you:
2 T( z( D1 A* L, |- ]
"A gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) is the maximum allowable total weight of a road vehicle or trailer when loaded - i.e including the weight of the vehicle itself plus fuel, passengers, cargo, and trailer tongue weight."

# ]8 ?, z, w0 k) |* m, m* ~"The difference between gross weight and curb weight is the total passenger and cargo weight capacity of the vehicle. For example, a pickup truck with a curb weight of 4500 pounds might have a cargo capacity of 2000 pounds, meaning it can have a gross weight of 6500 pounds when fully loaded."
