Kerb weight...

Hi
Wondering if anyone knows what amount of fuel quoted kerb weight includes?

On Toyota website it states

Kerb Mass (or Kerb Weight): is the mass of the vehicle in running order unoccupied and unladen with all fluid reservoirs filled to nominal capacity, including fuel and with all standard equipment.

Does this mean standard tailgate includes 150 litres of fuel and flat tail gate includes 87 litres?

60kg difference in kerb weight of GXL

Cheers

From further reading it appears tare weight includes 10 litres of fuel but kerb included full tanks of fuel.

Can anyone confirm?

Hi Mark, That is my understanding.
However I'm not sure if one tank or both tanks are full, and believe it must exclude any added accessories.

My understanding is that tare weight has minimal fuel and kerb weight has full fuel tanks. There's a current thread on kerb weight in the buying a Prado section. See in particular my post on the weight of my Kakadu. The numbers in the current spec sheet seem way out, at least for the Kakadu. They seem more like tare weight, but that's not what it says. The Dec 2020 spec sheet kerb weight figure was closer to the measured kerb weight. See the first post in that thread for details.
