C2 driver's license can be used to drive a seven-seater Highlander model. A C2 driver's license allows driving automatic transmission vehicles not exceeding six meters in length and models with fewer than nine seats. The following is an introduction to the C2 driver's license: Introduction to C2 Driver's License: The C2 driver's license is a type of driver's license that only permits driving small and micro automatic transmission passenger cars, as well as light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. Small and micro automatic transmission passenger cars are the most common sedans seen on the road; light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles are similar to box trucks like Isuzu. Vehicle Models Not Allowed with a C2 Driver's License: C2 can only drive automatic transmission models. A C2 driver's license does not permit driving large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, or trams.
I've specialized in studying driving license regulations. The C2 license is specifically designed for automatic transmission compact cars. Although the 7-seater Highlander has a substantial size, as long as its total mass doesn't exceed 4.5 tons and carries no more than 9 passengers, it falls under the category of a compact passenger vehicle. My Highlander owner's manual clearly states the vehicle weighs just over 2 tons, so the 7-seat version fully complies with the standards. However, it's important to note that manual transmission versions aren't permitted - all current new Highlander models come with automatic transmission so you can drive with peace of mind. During my C2 license test, the instructor specifically emphasized that this type of urban SUV perfectly matches the permitted driving scope of a C2 license, making it completely suitable for taking the whole family on holiday trips.
