CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES BASED ON TRANSMISSION?

1) Conventional vehicles with manual transmission, e.g. car with 5 gears.

2) Semi-automatic

3) Automatic : In automatic transmission, gears are not required to be changed manually. It is automatically changes as per speed of the automobile. 

CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES BASED ON BODY?

1) Sedan with two doors

2) Sedan with four doors

3) Station wagon

4) Convertible, e.g. jeep, etc.

5) Van

6) Special purpose vehicle, e.g. ambulance, milk van, etc

CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES BASED ON FUEL USED?

1) Petrol vehicle, e.g. motorcycle, scooter, cars, etc.

2) Diesel vehicle, e.g. trucks, buses, etc.

3) Electric vehicle which use battery to drive.

4) Steam vehicle, e.g. an engine which uses steam engine. These engines are now obsolete.

5) Gas vehicle, e.g. LPG and CNG vehicles, where LPG is liquefied petroleumgas and CNG is compressed natural gas.

CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES BASED ON WHEELS?

1) Two wheeler vehicle, for example : Scooter, motorcycle, scooty, etc.

2) Three wheeler vehicle, for example : Autorickshaw, three wheeler scooter for handicaps and tempo, etc.

3) Four wheeler vehicle, for example : Car, jeep, trucks, buses, etc.

4) Six wheeler vehicle, for example : Big trucks with two gear axles each having four wheels. 

CLASSIFICATION OF VEHICLES BASED ON LOAD?

1) Heavy transport vehicle (HTV) or heavy motor vehicle (HMV), e.g. trucks, buses, etc.

2) Light transport vehicle (LTV), e.g. pickup, station wagon, etc. 

3) Light motor vehicle (LMV), e.g. cars, jeeps, etc

DEFINITION OF AUTOMOBILE

                   Automobile engineering is a branch of engineering which deals with everything about automobiles and practices to propel them. Automobile is a vehicle driven by an internal combustion engine and it is used for transportation of passengers and goods on the ground. Automobile can also be defined as a vehicle which can move by itself.

Examples : Car, jeep, bus, truck, scooter, etc.

AUTOMOBILE

                    Automobile engineering is the one of the stream of mechanical engineering. It deals with the various types of automobiles, their mechanism of transmission systems and its applications. Automobiles are the different types of vehicles used for transportation of passengers, goods, etc. Basically all the types of vehicles works on the principle of internal combustion processes or some times the engines are called as internal combustion engines. Different types of fuels are burnt inside the cylinder at higher temperature to get the transmission motion in the vehicles. Most of the automobiles are internal combustion engines vehicles only. Therefore, every mechanical and automobile engineers should have the knowledge of automobile engineering its mechanism and its various applications.

We do some research project in automobile domain
