What does 07 vehicle mean?

07 vehicle is a vehicle code referring to two or three-wheeled motorcycles. Vehicle type code explanation: Vehicle type refers to a form of vehicle that distinguishes it by common characteristics, intended use, and functionality. Examples include passenger cars, trucks, buses, trailers, incomplete vehicles, and motorcycles, each being a separate type. Vehicle type code classification: Vehicle type codes are based on the former Soviet Union's motor vehicle classification, where 1 represents trucks, 2 represents off-road vehicles, 3 represents dump trucks, 4 represents towing vehicles, 5 represents special-purpose vehicles, 6 represents buses, 7 represents passenger cars, and 8 represents semi-trailers and special semi-trailers. Vehicle type refers to a form of vehicle distinguished by common characteristics, intended use, and functionality, such as passenger cars, trucks, buses, trailers, incomplete vehicles, and motorcycles, each being a separate type with different codes. For example, bus codes start with 'k', truck codes start with 'h', towing vehicle codes start with 'q', special operation vehicle codes start with 'z', and motorcycle codes start with 'm'.
Just talked about this codename the other day while helping a friend check out cars. The '07' usually refers to Lynk & Co's mid-size sedan equipped with the EM-P hybrid system. I've driven it a few times - the electric motor is super quiet at startup, and even when the engine kicks in at high speeds, there's hardly any jerkiness. Fuel consumption is just over 4L per 100km. The trunk is surprisingly spacious, and the rear seats can comfortably fit three people. The fastback design paired with frameless doors really turns heads. The infotainment system is much smoother than the older models, and the HUD can project navigation arrows, though the wireless charging pad still has overheating issues. It's great for daily commuting, but the chassis feedback feels a bit vague during aggressive driving.
Our fleet drivers often reminisce about the old 2007 Passat Lingyu. Back then, those cars were the mainstay of official vehicles. The cast-iron engine was rugged and durable—it wouldn’t even shudder when starting in second gear in city traffic jams. The engine bay was so spacious you could fit a fist inside, a design mechanics loved. The seat cushions were as hard as bricks, but they kept your back pain-free on long drives. The tactile feedback of the AC knobs felt more substantial than today’s touchscreens. The steering lacked power assist, making it tough for petite drivers to handle, but the road feedback was crystal clear. The rear floor was roomy enough to squat on, and the back seats had ample legroom—perfect for hauling tools to construction sites. When it was scrapped two years ago, the odometer showed 380,000 kilometers with only one major overhaul.
