• Category B after 1997 is up to 3,500kg and the Tesla thing is up to 3,103kg so that bit is okay.

  • In this part of the world, people with a so-called category B license (for regular passenger cars) can drive a vehicle that has a maximum gross weight rating of 3.5 tonnes, which is 7,716 lbs. While the Cybertruck’s weight is under the limit, the 6,843 lbs number doesn’t take the 2,500 lbs payload into account. Add that up and you get 9,343 lbs or 4,237 kg. And that’s without taking into account the weight of the passengers.

    According to the official VIN decoder that was submitted to regulators earlier this year, the Cybertruck has two possible gross vehicle weight ratings (GVWR):

    Class G – Greater than 3,629 kg to 4,082 kg. (8,001-9,000 lbs);
    Class H – Greater than 4,082 kg to 4,536 kg. (9,001-10,000 lbs).

    i think the uk cat B license is 3500kg gross weight rather than kerb weight.

    anyway, that was boring. i hope they don't ever get sold here, but i'm sure some nice individual will find a way.
