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！

Here is something i found for you:

"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."
. {: p4 p* c; s
"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."
+ H2 g: B0 g2 q9 C. j. H" @
I hope that would help with your question.
