Light truck
Resource Efficiency and Climate Change, Material Efficiency Strategies for a Low-Carbon Future, published by the UN Environment Programme in 2020, states: ‘According to the United States EPA, a light truck (LT) is an automobile that is not a car or a work truck. Both, passenger cars and light trucks, are grouped together under the category light-duty vehicle, i.e., a vehicle up to a gross weight of 8,500 lbs (3,856 kg).’
