DIN Standards for curb weight

DIN Standards for curb weight

DIN Standards for curb weight

(OP)
Would anyone know whether the measurement of a car's curb weight allows for a full or empty tank of fuel, with/without occupants etc? I have a 1990 Porsche and it just mentions "curb weight" 1310Kg DIN.

Thanks

RE: DIN Standards for curb weight

curb weight is with a full tank of gas and without passengers.

RE: DIN Standards for curb weight

evelrod's defined showroom weight, puttipie has defined curb weight.

I'll add design weight, which for a full size sedan is curb+driver+front seat passenger+ some luggage.  

Cheers
