The car is "das Auto"

===========================================================

Das Auto is a contraction of the word Automobil (automobile) and although Auto has come to mean car almost exclusively, it is, in fact, in German a generic term for all vehicles propelled by internal combustion engine and designed for the carriage of persons or goods.

Official documents, forms and road signs refer to the car as Personenkraftwagen (PKW) -motor vehicle for persons

A goods vehicle is referred to as Lastkraftwagen (LKW) - motor vehicle for goods
