Ton to Lbs Converter(Vehicle GVWR)

A "ton" isn't the same weight everywhere — the UK uses the 2,240 lb long ton, the US and Canada use the 2,000 lb short ton, and Europe and Mexico use the 2,204 lb metric tonne. This converter standardises vehicle weight on GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) and shows the right pound figure for your region, so you can size your FuelMarble correctly.

Rule of thumb: below 2 tons GVWR → FuelMarble S; 2–4 tons GVWR → 1× FuelMarble L. Heavier vehicles add a unit per band. Marine vessels are dosed separately (1 kg per 10 tonnes) — see the marine sizing guide. Convert any weight with the ton-to-lbs converter.
