Grand Touring. This was meant for cars that were sportier, but typically larger than a sports car and meant for more comfortable longer distance driving.
Interesting fact I learned when I was studying ancient Rome. Cicero was killed in his Sedan by soldiers sent to assassinate him. I didn't know what a sedan was, in reference to that. It's the thing people sat in while others carried them and walked. Which took 4 or more people.
GT is a "Grand Tourer" - Originally refers to the "Grand Tour" which was a grand travel through Europe for European nobles/upper class. Chances are, you probably saw it on the back of a Kia, where GT is a trim level. Famously was the Ford GT, or any Aston Martin. Aston Martin have prided themselves on mostly making GT cars through the years, which I think just means "sporty cars but also luxurious and with boots big enough to put a full set of Golf Clubs in" Electric Vehicles normally have an "EV" on the back, or the model number is suffixed/prefixed with an "e" (e.g Peugeot e2008, Vauxhall Corsa-E.) And as for your comment about the vehicle noises, yeah. In Europe by law you have to have an external speaker to produce noise. I have a Hybrid that drops into EV Mode when I put it in Reverse, and it was commented on once that it sounds like a spaceship as it makes this "WhhooOOoooOOoo" noise as I back up. That's a speaker hidden under the bonnet producing that noise
@@tycoonier when I was walking one night an electric car was backing out of a driveway and I, having my earbuds in, did not hear it at all! Crazy! Cute you called it a bonnet - I have to start saying that!! 😊
