Наткнулся на интересную статью на не без известном сайте о том как уменьшить вес Эво. Нет я не собираюсь этим заниматься но решил все таки поделится. В итоге со всеми танцами с бубном получилось снять 104.5 кг, но самое интересное написано в конце статьи о карбоновой крыше.

A carbon fiber hood is HEAVIER than your stock hood. Our stock hood weighed 20.2 lbs. and the carbon fiber hood that we purchased but never installed was 21.6 lbs.
The information provided was a total weight savings that we found of 230.4 lbs. After the removal or addition of these parts the car still looks stock. There are of course many other items that could be removed from the car to save even more weight but the look of the car is sacrificed in our opinion.
