How Does Curb Weight Affect Fuel Efficiency and Handling?

Heavier vehicles generally consume more fuel and may feel sluggish in dense traffic. Does the Kaghan XL’s weight noticeably impact mileage, and does it affect agility on Pakistani roads laden with traffic?

The heavier curb weight means slightly slower acceleration in traffic and higher fuel consumption, especially in stop-and-go driving. Handling feels stable at moderate speeds, but quick lane changes require more effort compared to lighter vans.
