For goods vehicles taxed on weight not by emissions.

Not sure if its still the same but a 7.5 ton lorry was the same to tax as a Ford Fiesta.

Revenue weight is another name for the Gross vehicle weight (GVW).

I think it is. I did a search on Google and the answer retrieved was what I posted previously. To be fair, I've never heard of revenue weight before that's why I had to do a search for the answer.

Mass in service is unladen weight (as it left the factory). Maximum permissible mass is self-explanatory and for this to be approx. 650kg more than mass in service is typical for a large car or small van. I haven't heard the term 'revenue weight' before but it can't be the same as 'gross weight' unless the figure given is wrong. 'Gross weight' would be the same as 'maximum permissible mass'.

What vehicle is it?

Hi
I understand the mass in service and max permissible weight
I've googled revenue weight and seems to be saying it's the same as max permissible weight which is where the confusion lies because the v5 gives mass in service as the same as revenue weight
Car is Land Rover Discovery sport

It might be a mistake. Someone had to fill in a form to register it and might have been confused.

Its not a goods vehicle but if it was a LR van with a higher gross weight (do they still make LR vans)? then the tax group could change based on that weight.

Seen some converted vehicles that were up plated from 3500kg to closer to 4000kg but the tax group changed to something like 4200kg because that was the tax band at that time.

No idea if they still use that figure, a driver of a 7.5ton vehicle got a speeding ticket that was related to vehicles over 7.5 tons. Found out the revenue weight was listed as over 7490kg as it should have been.
Had to send off paperwork for the vehicle to get it changed and the fine was cancelled and log book updated.

If your vehicle is not taxed by weight then it makes no difference.
