这里介绍的西方的分法，与中国的有出入。
根据车体风格来（Car body style）划分：
1。Sedan 最普通的私家车，轿车。A car seating four or more with a
fixed roof that is full-height upto the rear window. Normally a 4
door; 2 door is rarer but they do occur (more so historically).
This is the most common body style. In the U.S., this term has
been used to denote a car with fixed window frames, as opposed to
the hardtop style where the sash, if any, winds down with
the glass. As hardtops have become rarer, this distinction is no
longer so important.
2。Convertible 敞篷车A body a removable or
retractable roof and rear window.
3。Coupe (US) or Coupé (UK/EU)，应该可以翻译为单开门的车。注意，在英国及欧洲用法语发音，重音在后面。此车只有两个门，两排或一排座。A
coupe (or coupé) is a two or four-seater
car with a fixed roof and two doors.
3。Hatchback 有仓门式后背的汽车Identified by a rear door
including the back window that opens vertically to access a
storage area not separated from the rest of the passenger
compartment. May be 2 or 4 door and 2 or 4 seat.
4 MPV 多用途车。Multi-purpose vehicle, a large car or small
bus designed to be used on and off-road and easily convertible to
facilitate loading of goods from facilitating carrying people
5 Van 货车 In the context of a car type, this is usually
a car body with no passenger capacity or windows at the rear. Such
models are a utility vehicle with a fully enclosed load area, with
seating usually for two people.
6 Minivan 不知道怎么翻译好。在英国通常称为people carriers. A car
usually containing three rows of seats, with a capacity of six or
more passengers. Often with extra luggage space also. As opposed
to a van, a minivan is styled as a car, though is more van-like
than a station wagon. In Britain, these are generally referred to
as
People carriers.
7 Sports utility vehicle (SUV) 运动型多用途车。Derivative of
off-road or four-wheel drive vehicles but with car-like levels of
interior comfort and drivability. Also sometimes called a "soft-roader".
8 A station wagon (United States usage), wagon
(Australian usage) or estate car (United Kingdom usage) is
a car body style similar to a sedan car but with an extended rear
cargo area.

等等，等等。
车的分类实在太复杂。先说到这里。

其实皮卡是从英文pickup翻译过来的。也可称为pickup truck 。The American Heritage®
Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000.
对其定义是：NOUN: A light truck with an open body and low sides.

station wagon 就是旅行车。其实我听澳大利亚人也把这种车称为 station wagon 的。
