Gross weight is the maximum allowed weight.
The number that matters for most people when looking at fuel consumption is the EU kerb weight, which is an empty vehicle with a full coolant/washer/oil/gas tanks and a 165 lb driver.
This is fairly similar to the number the EPA uses for mpg, and higher than the US curb weight (which doesn't include a driver or full tank).
But if you drive with your car loaded to the max, sure, look at the gross weight.
