Are Motorcycles Classified as Motor Vehicles or Non-Motor Vehicles?
1 Answers
Motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles. Motorcycles powered by fuel engines with a displacement of 50cc or above (including 50cc) are considered motor vehicles, while those with a displacement below 50cc are classified as fuel-powered mopeds. For electric two-wheelers, those with a total mass not exceeding 40 kilograms and a speed within 20 kilometers per hour are categorized as electric mopeds, according to national regulations. Below is an introduction to motor vehicles: 1. Motor vehicles refer to wheeled vehicles driven or towed by power devices, used for transporting people or goods on roads, as well as for specialized engineering operations. These include cars and car trains, motorcycles and mopeds, tractor transport units, wheeled special-purpose machinery, and electric vehicles. 2. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the driving licenses that permit the operation of motorcycles are categorized into three classes: D, E, and F. Among these, a Class D license allows the holder to operate vehicles under Classes E and F; a Class E license permits the operation of Class F vehicles only; and a Class F license is restricted to Class F vehicles, with no other vehicle types permitted.
