<span style="color: #008000; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> That a Motor Car is, broadly, any self-powered vehicle with more than two wheels and an enclosed passenger compartment, capable of being steered by the operator and designed for use on a road or street. The term is used more specifically to denote any such vehicle designed to carry two to seven people. A synonym is automobile (Grk. autos, "self"; Lat., mobilis, "movable"). Larger vehicle designed for more passengers are called buses, and those designed to carry freight are called lorries. The term automotive vehicle includes all of the above, as well as certain specialised industrial and military vehicles. <span class="apple-style-span" style="color: #008000; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> <span style="color: #008000; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> Also about the electric cars, now that the important advances in battery technology have led to electric cars capable of speeds up to 80 km/h and a range of 160 km or more. Such cars might become popular because they can be recharged overnight when the power demand on electric generating stations is low. Mass use of electric vehicles would lower the demand for crude oil. <span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #008000; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">By using lightweight steel, aluminium, plastics, and magnesium, car manufacturers drastically reduced the size and weight of their models in the late 1970s and early 1980s in an effort to improve fuel efficiency. Front-wheel drive technology, which allows more passenger and cargo space inside smaller cars, has been adopted by carmakers worldwide, replacing the rear-drive arrangement commonly used since the motor industry's earliest days.
