What are the categories of vehicles?
1 Answers
Automobiles are divided into several types, including cargo trucks, off-road vehicles, dump trucks, tractors, special-purpose vehicles, buses, passenger cars, and semi-trailers. Classification of road vehicles in China: According to the 2005 automotive statistical classification standard, vehicles are categorized into passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles. Passenger vehicles refer to those with fewer than nine seats, primarily designed for passenger transport. Passenger vehicles are further classified into basic passenger cars (sedans), MPVs, SUVs, and other types such as pickup trucks. Commercial vehicles refer to those with nine or more seats or those designed primarily for cargo transport. They are specifically divided into buses, trucks, semi-trailers, incomplete buses, and incomplete trucks. International standard vehicle classification: The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is responsible for the formulation and management of road vehicle standards. In international standards, there is only a terminology standard for vehicles, not a classification standard. "Road vehicles — Types — Terms and definitions" serves as the common standard for vehicle nomenclature in all international standards. The standard is highly normative in terms of terminology usage, with virtually no instances of the same concept being referred to by different terms or different concepts by the same term across different standards. The hierarchy of terms in the standard is clearly delineated.
