Renault Express Van

Is Renault Express Van an updated version of the Dacia Dokker? Its built in Tangier, Morocco where the Dokker is/was made (with the new Kangoo Van being built at the Maubeuge factory in France).[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.172.230 (talk) 15:45, 19 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

So called "leisure activity vehicle"

edit

The term "leisure activity vehicle" is entirely spurious, with the only places I have ever seen it used being PSA Group press releases, Wikipedia, and sources making fun of PSA for using the term (ie. What Car?); if a source is using the term and isn't clearly referencing a PSA press release then I'd take that as a strong indication that they're getting their information from Wikipedia. While I think "multi-purpose vehicle" is a WP:JARGON term that isn't WP:PLAINENGLISH without context being given (terms like "panel van" give more than enough for that to be the case here), MPVs are a fairly clearly defined category and the term has been used throughout motoring circles for the best part of three decades. Unless you're writing a press release for Peugeot then in English a "leisure activity vehicle" is a jet ski or a go-kart (unless the term is being used here as a MOS:EUPHEMISM for a vehicle that's well suited for exhibitionists).

I agree: "leisure activity vehicle" is misleading.--3knolls (talk) 07:07, 18 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
