Chevrolet Cruze Curb Weight: 2,756 lbs to 2,892 lbs

At 61/39, the 2,756 lbs puts about 1,681 lbs on the front axle and 1,075 lbs on the rear — 606 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.

The two axles are not the same width either: 61.4 in of track at the front against 61.0 in at the rear, 0.4 in narrower behind.

The lightest 2015 record is 3,084 lbs; the lightest 2019 record is 2,756 lbs — 328 lbs lighter (10.6%).

At the top of the range the 2019 file reaches 2,892 lbs against 3,470 lbs in 2015, a 578 lbs reduction — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.
