I think it (and other similar abbreviations) should be a separate entry with a キージー reading. It could have a note on it usually being read キロ, possibly.

I don't think it belongs here or on キロ, except possibly as an sK form. I note that we don't have cm, km, ml, etc. I'm not sure there's much value in having them as entries.

I think it's appropriate that people looking up "kg" get to a matching entry. We have キロ/kilogram as a sense in 1042610. It could move to a separate entry with kg as a kanji form. Failing that, this could stay as it is.

  Comments:
We usually have these symbols in separate entries. "m" (meter), "g" (gram), and "v" (volt) are in the entries for エム, ジー, and ブイ, for example, not メートル, グラム, and ボルト.

Judging by the results on youglish, it seems people would read "kg" as キロ in both formal and casual contexts >95% of the time.

I think I'm in favor of dropping "kg", but if it stays I guess it should be placed before the rare kanji form.
