Depending on the vehicle, I would say there probably isn't any or many vehicles out there where copper is used in structural applications (unless its been alloyed) because most forms of Copper wouldn't give the desirable mechanical properties for the bodywork of a vehicle. But generally the majority of electrical applications in cars contain copper wiring or copper coils of some sort inside the insulated circuit wires and the relay housing and inside the alternator are common places where copper wire is often used. How much in kilograms would be difficult to say. Possibly contacting an engineer based at a manufacturing plant or an electrical component supplier such as Denso Corp or Bosch would be your best bet on actual measurements.

How much copper in a medium sized car?
It depends on what it is.. as far as copper you're not gonna find any clean copper for scrapping(which is why I'm assuming you're asking) you will find copper with a bit of work, you will have lost of wiring depending on the car and then in the electrical components other than that there's no copper anywhere else, only in the wiring and alternator and starter. some cars have copper radiator(older stuff) but most are alum.. or maybe brass.. you may also find a little bit of copper in the spark plugs if its older(newer plugs are platinum)
