Hi Stian - I don't know if your car is missing the ID plate that is normally mounted next to the aft latch pin on the driver's side door opening. This plate carries the information that you are asking about. On the US version, the Maximum Gross Vehicle Weight Rating is 3180 lbs. The rating for the front "axle" is 1244 lbs, while the rear rating is 1936 lbs. I would guess that you can just convert to metric units from those values. I hope that this answers your questions.
