Definition

A commercial vehicle is a motor vehicle that is used for business, commercial, or industrial purposes rather than personal use. These vehicles are designed and used for transporting goods, passengers, or performing specialized tasks and services in exchange for compensation or operational utility. The definition of a commercial vehicle may vary by jurisdiction and can encompass a wide range of vehicles based on size, purpose, and application. This includes vehicles used in logistics, freight, public transportation, and agricultural operations.

MCVs are used for commercial applications such as distribution of goods in urban areas or light freight transport.

HCVs generally have a GVWR of over 16 tons and are used for logistics, freight transport, and large-scale construction projects.
