How the figure moved since 2015

The lightest 2015 record is 5,578 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 5,478 lbs — 100 lbs lighter (1.8%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 6,801 lbs against 5,578 lbs in 2015, a 1,223 lbs increase — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

Against the rest of the standard sport utility vehicle 4wd class

Ranked on the lightest configuration of each nameplate, the G-Class is 61 of 81 in Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD, 440 lbs above the 5,038 lbs median and lighter than 20 of its peers.

Front and rear axle loads

At 53/47, the 5,478 lbs puts about 2,904 lbs on the front axle and 2,574 lbs on the rear — 330 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.
