Weight as a performance indicator

A host of car performance metrics take weight into consideration to measure performance. For example power to weight indicators like BHP Per Ton and Torque Per Ton. The vast majority of the specifications we provide include the weight, curb weight (kerb weight) of the car. The weight gives us an indication of not only the acceleration and top speed potential but also how the vehicle handles in the bends.
