2. What is a car What is a Car A Car is a  wheeled   motor vehicle  used for  transporting   passengers , which also carries its own engine. Most definitions of the term specify that automobiles are designed to run primarily on roads, to have seating for one to eight people, to typically have four wheels, and to be constructed principally for the  transport  of people rather than goods.

3. Etymology The word  automobile  comes, via the French  automobile  from the Ancient Greek word αὐτός ( autós , "self") and the Latin  mobilis  ("movable") meaning a vehicle that moves itself.  The alternative name  car  is believed to originate from the Latin word carrus  or  carrum  ("wheeled vehicle"), or the Middle English word  carre  ("cart") (from Old North French), in turn these are said to have originated from the Gaulish word  karros  (a Gallic Chariot)
