What is a Commercial Passenger Vehicle?
1 Answers
Commercial passenger vehicles refer to motor vehicles engaged in road transport operations for profit-making purposes, i.e., generating and obtaining economic benefits through transport activities related to business operations. There are distinct differences between commercial vehicles and ordinary private vehicles, mainly reflected in the following two aspects: 1. Large-scale characteristics: Vehicles engaged in commercial road passenger and freight transport are mostly medium and large-sized vehicles, with their overall dimensions, curb weight, gross weight, and passenger/cargo capacities far exceeding those of ordinary private vehicles. 2. Operational intensity characteristics: In terms of operational intensity, they far surpass ordinary private vehicles. The average annual mileage per vehicle is significantly higher than that in developed countries like Japan and Germany (50,000-60,000 km/year), and even more so compared to ordinary private vehicles (10,000-30,000 km/year).
