Commercial vehicles are those vehicles which are designed to perform a specific task. Examples of commercial vehicles include buses, forklifts, and dump trucks.

While information about retail vehicles is listed by model, vehicle subclass, and engine size, commercial vehicle information is based on function. Commercial vehicle settings include the following:

Type: Identifies the kind of vehicle (cement mixer or a refrigerated van)

Application: Identifies how or where the vehicle is used (Light commercial, over the road, or pick up and delivery)
