Kerb Weight = Weight of Car with standard accessories, full fluids, no driver = 1505kg (Auto)
Unladen Weight = Weight of Car with fuel, 68 kg driver, 7 kg cargo = 1580kg (Auto)

All approx, as you say, varies a bit with options and accessories.

Not sure if that is BMW's interpretation, but unladen weight doesn't include fuel.

Not a big deal though, I'd just say it's around 1.5t and you're pretty much there

 

Yes, there are a couple of definitions, DIN and EU

 

I have weighed my 2018 M140i auto Shadow edition, no sunroof, 5dr and it was 1520kg with 3/4 tank of fuel. I'll be looking for some weight saving mods in the future. But for now I'm happy with it, it's an excellent little car.

nice one was it with out yourself ?

 

Yes I was out of the car when it was weighed, I'm going to do some weight reduction in the future a-bit like a club sport edition, usual tuning, as it stands I've done a 13.0 seconds Santa Pod timing so room for improvement there.

The starting point for me would be a li-ion battery so long as there aren't compatibility issues. Nice to lose weight without any compromise to comfort or functionality.

Wheels would be a good one too, with multiple upsides and no negatives bar cost.

 

light weight bits would be as Matt said battery, rear seats out, lighter wheels, lighter exhaust maybe, air con out....probably not to be fair, lighter front buckets seats, probably a bit to get out.

Matt I've seen your story on here about your M140i and video on YouTube 👍 did the 255 square setup make a good difference 👍

 

CF bonnet?

 

CF bonnet?

Cheers Marco 👍 would the bonnet not rattle so it would be a good fit 👍

 

Folks often use bonnet pins with carbon bonnets.

I was thinking of ways to maintain the balance, losing roughly the same amount of weight from the nose (as the rear). Lose the engine cover too?

Huge thanks for sharing this. I've searched the internet thoroughly and this is the only result I've found. So maybe 1535kg with full tank and the Shadow edition comes with quite a few options.

Maybe a 3 door would be 1515kg with full tank. Not too bad.

My M4 is 1639KG with full tank and lots of options without driver.

Wish I'd weighed my old M135!

No worries bud, they are good cars for the money 👍 once the mods begin I think it will be sweet 👍

 

Just to update this:

2019 3 door Shadow Edition with heated seats, electric mirrors and full tank of fuel. Running lighter wheels and tyres for a saving of approx 12kg the car weighed 1538kg.

 

Nice, 100kg lighter than an M4. Didn't expect that.

Was that on 4 scales? What was the weights on each wheel?

Sorry, didn't see this. M2, M3 or M4. They all have an aluminium front subframe. Around 6kg lighter than the steel versions. However, once you fit the steel stiffening plate it's probably similar in weight, but stiffer.

It's actually about 90kg lighter than M4, considering the Mlite looks tiny in comparison, I think that shows how much they did to keep weight off M4.

This was weighed using the scales at brands hatch (just one big one), same one used on M4.

 

git-r2 is your car a manual transmission 👍 mine is Auto, did you fit a lsd diff and
are you happy with it, cheers for heads up Nissan 👍.
