Etymology
'vehicle-oriented' originates from the English word 'vehicle' combined with the suffix '-oriented', where 'vehicle' refers to a means of transport and '-oriented' means directed towards or focused on.
'vehicle' comes from the Latin word 'vehiculum', meaning 'means of transport', and '-oriented' is derived from the Latin 'orientare', meaning 'to arrange or direct'.
Initially, 'vehicle-oriented' meant 'focused on vehicles', and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
