  1. 汽车的分类。宽敞,商务一点的轿车叫sedan, 加长的豪华车叫limo,比如Rolls- Royce劳斯莱斯,Bentley宾利, Mercedes S Class奔驰S系列 ;商务车或者说面包车叫multi-purpose vehicle多用途车,也就是常说的MPV; sport utility vehicle,是多功能运动车,就是SUV的全称,很多人喜欢SUV是因为其视野好,安全感强,还有一个重要原因是SUV也包括了越野off-road vehicle, 比如Jeep Wrangler克莱斯勒吉普牧马人, Land Rover路虎, Mercedes Benz G class奔驰G系列, Toyota Land Cruiser 丰田陆地巡洋舰,也是国人说的兰德酷路泽,Suzuki Jiminy 铃木吉姆尼,这些车子能带你去往没有路的地方看风景的同时,还能把你带回来,其他的车子怕是去不了也回不来;
