light vehicle
Compact wheeled conveyance
A light vehicle is a car, pickup truck, SUV, or van—any motor vehicle designed primarily for passenger transportation rather than heavy hauling.
The category typically includes vehicles under a certain weight threshold, distinguishing them from heavy trucks, buses, and commercial freight vehicles: Light vehicle sales exceeded 15 million units last year.
The term appears most often in automotive industry statistics and transportation policy.
