Questions and answers

Which is the lightest sedan in the 1CARS catalog?

The Ford Anglia (Anglia 105E · 1959–1967), with 737 kg (1,625 lb). Second is the Moskvich-403 with 900 kg.

How is this ranking compiled?

Each model appears once, with the lowest kerb weight quoted for any of its versions. Makers measure weight differently (with or without driver and fuel), so treat gaps of a few dozen kilograms with caution.

Why is a model missing from the list?

A model is listed only when the 1CARS catalog has a confirmed figure for it. Models without an official figure stay out instead of getting an estimate, and the list grows as we add data. Concept cars, prototypes, one-offs and racing cars are not ranked; limited-run models are marked.
