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:
" f8 T- f& Q) G. w; p
6 L  w9 }3 E2 ?"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."
& M4 S" ]# N$ `  C1 g+ U5 I
. M. P+ H, n8 A. d( X. F. C3 a"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."

I hope that would help with your question.
