Tare mass of Mazda Tribute V6?
Asked by Jason
The registration papers for my 2003 Mazda Tribute V6 lists the tare weight of 1555kg, but according to many websites it should only be 1425kg. The vehicle weight tax applying to a car weighing 1555kg is $448 vs. 1425kg at $293. That's quite a substantial saving. Have you come across such discrepancies before? What chance do I have to get this amended?
Answered by CarsGuide
3 Feb 2017The tare mass of the V6 model is 1527kg; the four-cylinder model is 1434kg, which might help explain the discrepancy.
