If by light metal you mean aluminum, there are some cars that use aluminum body panels. Most do not, for reasons of cost, mainly. Steel is easier to work with and much cheaper, as well as being easier to paint. The difference in weight does not justify the cost from a manufacturer's standpoint on most cars.

Why can transition metals be used to make electrical wires?
Their high conductivity is why transition metals are used to make electrical wires.
Why do you have Easter bonnets?
Easter bonnets are worn by Christian women and young girls to mark the end of the lent season. Bonnets were worn in the 1930's and were used as a celebration purpose but now a days they are mainly worn for ceremonial purposes.
Microhardness in metals?
Microhardness is a hardness test used to check lightweight metals and alloys. Sometimes referred to as micro-indentation testing, these test use very light loads to make a microscopic impression.
What metals are used to make fans?
Steel and aluminum are used to make funs.
Can only metals be used to make a solar cell?
No. You could make a solar cell out of any chemical that has a positive photo-reaction. However metals (and more importantly, combinations of metals) have the greatest half-cell potentials that make exploiting light induced ionization potentials particularly easy in the solar cell realm of business.
Is a metal a source of light?
Answer No, not in itself. Metal can be used as a component in artificial light sources, and metal can be used to reflect light, but metal does not make light. Answer Metals, when heated to a certain temperature, can emit light. For example, Light bulbs have filaments of Tungsten in them. Electricity flowing through the Tungsten heats it up and it emits light.
Is carbon fiber vinyl heatproof?
I think it is considering its used for bonnets.
What metals are used to make airplanes?
Aluminium.
Which two metals are most commonly used to make a knifes blade?
The two most common metals used to make knives are steel and iron.
What materials are used to make artificial limbs?
Artificial limbs must be light weight, so they are normally made of plastic. Sometimes they are made of titanium or aluminum, since both metals are light.
Do you use hair to make a light bulb?
No, hair is not used to make a light bulb. Light bulbs are typically made of glass or other transparent materials, with a filament made of tungsten or other metals that produce light when heated. Hair is not a suitable material for this purpose.
What metals are used to make metal screws?
Metals are used for the production of screws as they are materials with high hardness and resistance to stress.
