Emira weight In its lightest form is about 37.75 average calfs. The v6 engine will be around 395 pounds give or take. Safe to assume the BASE I4 will be the lightest by possibly a few hundred pounds.

 

2GR-FE weight is 163 kg (360 lbs) in service condition
Super Charger ~ 7 kg
EA60 87 Kg (152 lbs (dry)
Total: 567 lbs plus trans oil
IPS + 5 kg

AMG 160.5 Kg (354 lbs dry)
DCT ?? told its heavier than the EA60

 

Doesn’t look that way if the Current Toyota motor weighs 395 and the AMG 354. Couple of hundred how?

 

Im talking the I4 BASE (No options) Vs the FE V6. FE includes stuff that adds weight, while the slimmed down I4 will not. Drivers Pack, Convenience Pack, and Design pack will add some weight.

 

Supposedly the difference in weight between the "lightest form" and the FE is 54 kg or 119 lbs. If the i4 is only 40 lbs lighter than the V6, that accounts for 40 of those 119 pounds, which leaves us with 79 lbs. The 12-way electric adjustable seats probably take up 50 lbs of that 79, which leaves us with 29 lbs. The difference there would be the KEF audio system with its 10 speakers + sub-woofer, and the leather interior, as opposed to the standard audio system and the "performance fabric" cloth seats. The "ultra light weight forged wheels" most likely are lighter than the stock cast wheels so that helps the FE slightly in the weight department.

If you get an i4 and can live without the 12-way seats and the KEF audio, between the engine, seats and audio system, that'll probably save you about 100 lbs (45kg) compared to the FE. You could take the thousands you save by not getting those options, and get a custom paint color. Custom paints are not going to be cheap ($8,500 U.S. from what I've read), so you might wind up spending as much if not slightly more than an FE, but you'll have a car that's 100 lbs lighter, with an engine option that's most likely going to allow for more tuned power, a DCT, and the paint color of your choice.

Now keep in mind any prices we're discussing today are not inflation-adjusted, so 1-3 years down the road the prices are likely to be higher for everything, including the base i4, but you'll have more choices and options then.

 

The "ultra light weight forged wheels" most likely are lighter than the stock cast wheels so that helps the FE slightly in the weight department.

Are there other wheels we haven’t seen yet? All three current wheels being offered are all forged and not cast.

 

Don’t forget the weight of the transmission as well…

 

Which you won't find the weight of the AMG transmission anywhere. Both engines have published weights as does the V-6 transmissions but I have searched high and low and can't find anything weight wise except to say it's 3.6k lower than the seven speed.

 

Also, I wonder if the published engine weights include the manifolds and turbo/supercharger plus chargecooler ve an intercooler? Usually factory turbo setups come with cast manifolds, Vs the tubular ones on the supercharged engine? Also, don’t forget the cats, those are pretty heavy.
it will be interesting to see and more info becomes available.
