According to Sports Car International magazine (May 2003) the basic Renesis weighs 121 lbs or 273 lbs with all ancillaries. It is approx half the weight of a piston engine equivalent.

Does that help?

I've seen 273 lbs but also 303 lbs listed. Who knows? Either way that is light. Modern aluminum 4 bangers weigh 275-325 lbs.
