What types of vehicles can a C2 license drive?

The C2 license is authorized to drive small automatic transmission vehicles. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the permitted vehicles include small and micro automatic transmission passenger vehicles, as well as light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. Small automatic transmission vehicles refer to those with a total mass not exceeding 4.5 tons, seating capacity not exceeding 9 people, and a vehicle length not exceeding 6 meters. C2 license test items: Theoretical knowledge (Subject 1), mainly covering road signs and traffic laws; Field driving skills (Subject 2), including reverse parking, parallel parking, right-angle turns, and S-curves; Road driving skills (Subject 3), including lighting and roadside parking; Civilized driving theory (Subject 4), assessing the driver's civilized driving qualities. According to the "Motor Vehicle Driving License Business Work Standards" issued by the public security department, motor vehicle driving licenses are classified into a hierarchical system, dividing licenses into 15 levels: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4, D, E, F, M, N, P. The permitted vehicle types for each license level are as follows: A1 license: Permitted to drive large passenger vehicles.

After obtaining my C2 driver's license, I found that I can drive quite a variety of vehicles, but only automatic transmission models. The C2 license allows me to drive automatic transmission small passenger vehicles, such as common sedans and SUVs like the Toyota Corolla or Honda CR-V, which are very convenient for daily use, whether for city cruising or commuting. It also permits driving automatic transmission micro passenger vehicles and light trucks, such as minivans like the Wuling Hongguang or small pickups, with a vehicle length not exceeding 6 meters, which are quite useful for carrying goods. However, the C2 license does not allow driving manual transmission vehicles or large vehicles like buses or heavy trucks, to avoid violating traffic regulations. Overall, the C2 license is suitable for beginners or those who prefer relaxed driving. When choosing a car, just look for the automatic transmission label and avoid models with a clutch.
