Curb weights sourced from the NHTSA Canadian Vehicle Specifications database and recorded per body style, with fluids and a full fuel tank but no occupants or cargo.

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

Ranked on the lightest configuration of each nameplate, the GLS-Class is 59 of 81 in Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD, 429 lbs above the 5,038 lbs median and lighter than 22 of its peers.

Front and rear axle loads

At 53/47, the 5,467 lbs puts about 2,898 lbs on the front axle and 2,569 lbs on the rear — 329 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: 66.9 in of track at the front against 68.1 in at the rear, 1.2 in narrower in front.

How the figure moved since 2017

The lightest 2017 record is 5,335 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 5,467 lbs — 132 lbs heavier (2.5%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 6,074 lbs against 5,754 lbs in 2017, a 320 lbs increase — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.
