What components make it weigh so much? 4100 lbs in an aluminum engined car?
in general, comparing the new one to a previous gen, sound deadener, a fairly beefy structure (5 star crash rating,etc.), big wheels, big tire, a pile of air bags.

this car appears to add ~200 lbs to that of a similar S. bigger brakes and I'm guessing the mag shock stuff adds weight. and the lsa motor is heavier too.
