Still a weird thing to do. My SUV, according to the internet, weighs between 1.63 and 1.70 metric tonnes (3,603 to 3,755 lbs). A sedan from the same brand and trim level weighs between 1.67 and 1.73 metric tonnes (3,676 to 3,816 lbs). Granted, sedans in the US are larger than what are sold in Europe, so they probably used cars sold there to come up with the weights.
