Definition: An automobile vehicle or mechanism; esp., a self-propelled vehicle suitable for use on a street or roadway.

The power of the driving motor varies from about 4 to 50 H. P. for ordinary vehicles, ranging from the run-about to the touring car, up to as high as 200 H. P. for specially built racing cars. Automobiles are also commonly, and generally in British usage, called motor cars.
