The van is a classic cabin and closed with a gross vehicle weight of less than 3,500 kg, making it conductive, in almost every part of the world, with the same certificate to drive necessary to conduct the cars . According to our rules of the road with the license type B.

Pickup

The pick-up (also called a caisson ) is a vehicle motor part of the category of trucks , and approved as such. Its main feature is the presence of a body, ideally instead of the boot (though the body is separate and not accessible from the cabin with seats).
Classic pickups are made of a wire frame with it separately mounted a cab / cab and cargo area / platform (English cargo bed or cargo box ) with a rigid rear axle and leaf springs.  Pickups often share basic chassis with a SUV (example: Nissan Navara - Nissan Pathfinder ). Some models purely off-road , such as Land Rover and Nissan Patrol , also have a pick-up version.

Convertible

A convertible (also called convertible or cabriolet ) is a type of body of car homeless or whose roof can either be removed or folded and stowed in the trunk. This roof, hood called, can be vinyl , fabric , plastic or metal , is often referred to popularly cabrio and sometimes mistakenly called coupé due to marketing that took place when automakers began to gather names coupé-cabriolet to refer to convertible with a metal roof formed.
Virtually all convertible with two side doors, because larger openings cause structural problems in the chassis.
