No. It's mass stays the same everywhere, but the weight of that mass depends on the force ofgravity between the object and any other objects that happen to be nearby.For example, consider a car with a mass of 1,000 kilograms.If the car is on the earth, its weight is about 9,800 Newtons, which is the same as about 2,200 pounds.If the car is on the moon, its weight is about 1,630 Newtons, which is the same as about 365 pounds.If the car is on the International Space Station, its weight is zero.
If the car is on or near the Earth's surface, then it weighs 3,086.5 pounds. (rounded)
On earth, 8 kg of mass weighs 78.4 newtons (17.64 pounds).
A good average weight for a car is 1000kg, but with a range from 500kg for a small car, to maybe 2000kg or more for a hummer.
No. Mass is independent of gravity, but weight is a function of gravity and mass.
950kg is 2,094.4 pounds.

The "weight". How much a car weights. Like ... pounds or ... kg

The mass and weight are unchanged. The volume is reduced.

Weight is proportional to mass. The greater the mass (or weight) the more force it takes to move it, thus the greater the mass the slower it moves when the same force is applied.Imagine you push a matchbook car on a table top, you can move it easily and fairly fast. Now apply that same force to a car that has the brake off and is out of gear -- the car probably won't move but if it does it will move very slowly.
Cars vary in mass from about 500 kg to 3,000 kg, depending on make and model.
