The class extends to specialized land vehicles such as all-terrain vehicles, trailers, and amphibious craft when their primary function is terrestrial travel. Adjacent classes address rail-bound vehicles (B61), aerospace vehicles (B64), and water vessels (B63), which fall outside this classification's scope.
