Toyota GT-86 official specs out! (including MPG)

I cant get google translate to translate the entire table; but from what i understand (and what im the most interested in) is:

MPG: 12.3 km/l = 29.17 MPG (JC08 Test cycle, Full details on page 2) = 36 MPG EPA/CAFE
Gross vehicle mass (limited): 1450 kg = 3196.7 lb
Vehicle weight (limited): 1250 kg = 2755 lbs

Not quite sure what the difference between gross mass and vehicle weight is..

Discuss:

Nothing we didn't already know about a version of a car we're not getting.

really? i was mostly interested in MPG numbers. Seems like its in line with subaru japan's. Im assuming then that the scion will have simmilar mpg

The gross vehicle mass number is scary, I hope that's not just a rough translation for wet weight.

Gross vehicle weight is the weight of the car with it's maximum rated payload. What it means is that the car should never be burdened with more than ~440 lbs of fluids/people/crap.

thats the weight of 3 people.. proof that you cant have 4 adults LOL.

Hah, back seats literally are for children :P

Google search "Gross vehicle weight definition" and "vehicle curb weight definition" to understand the difference between the larger figure and the smaller figure.

And old greg beat me to it!

Or two Americans. :D

lol not if the average american is 150lbs like a previous user said a while back

I've got no idea where CT is, but judging from your comment I'm guessing it's in America?

so after me + my gf + my 2 kids i still can pack 97lbs of crap in the trunk

Are you including children in your sample population? :)

According to the source of all knowledge, back in ye olde days (~y2k) the average adult American male weighed 191 lbs, and the average adult American female weighed 164 lbs.

Perhaps the poster got lb and kg confused?
