The term luxury vehicle is a marketing term for a vehicle that provides luxury in exchange for increased cost. The term suggests a vehicle with more equipment, performance or prestige — or other discretionary features — beyond necessity. Though widely used, the term is broad and highly variable and lacks standardized definition. The term can reflect a wide range of a vehicle's design or marketing features, including body type, construction, comfort, size, equipment content, technological innovation or brand image — provided at a higher level and at higher cost. A luxury vehicle is a relatively expensive vehicle which includes additional features designed to increase the comfort of the driver and passengers. Luxury vehicles usually place more emphasis on comfort, appearance, and amenities such as technological upgrades and higher quality materials than on performance, economy, or utility. Luxury vehicles are often built in smaller numbers than more affordable mass-market vehicles. Luxury vehicles include cars (sedan, coupe, hatchback, station wagon, roadster, etc.) and trucks, such as light pickup trucks or sport utility vehicles

Car classification is subjective since many vehicles fall into multiple categories or do not fit well into any. Not all car types are common in all countries and names for the same vehicle can differ by region. Furthermore, some descriptions may be interpreted differently in different places. Broadly speaking, there are a set of classifications which are widely understood in North America, and another set which are somewhat understood in English-speaking contexts in Europe. Some terms borrowed from non-English languages may have different meanings when used in their native language.
