heavy-duty vehicles
Big commercial rigs
Heavy-duty vehicles are large, powerful machines built for demanding work—commercial trucks, buses, construction equipment, and military transport.
The category typically includes vehicles over a certain weight threshold, distinguished from light-duty passenger cars and pickups.
Heavy-duty vehicles account for a disproportionate share of road emissions.
The term appears frequently in regulations governing fuel efficiency and emissions standards.
