fixed-head type (body) tipo de carrocería no descapotable Explanation: No sé si habrá una terminología establecida o al uso, pero "tipo de carrocería no descapotable" o simplemente "no descapotable" creo que podría servirte en tu contexto. Saludos cordiales. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs (2019-04-21 03:52:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Tal vez podría equipararse a "hardtop", aunque no estoy 100 % seguro, creo que se refiere a eso. https://es.oxforddictionaries.com/translate/english-spanish/... |

Reference: Refs. Reference information: I am not sure what is meant by "fixed-head type", but I disagree with other proposal. The vehicle cannot be a "Capota fija/no amovible" which is a coupé ("cupé") type vehicle, and this is totally contradictory to the requirements for taxis for example in England, Scotland, etc. (UK). https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/CHttpHandler.ashx?id=24939&p=0 Any proposed vehicle must be of a make and model approved by the Authority. The criteria for approval includes the following requirements: o at least 4 doors; o 4 passenger seats (not including the driver); o each seat pad is 16” in width, or in the case of a bench seat, 48”/122cm; o steering wheel must be fitted to the offside of the vehicle at point of manufacture; ** o body of the vehicle must be of a fixed head type (not convertible); ** https://www.east-ayrshire.gov.uk/Resources/PDF/L/LicensingTa... The body must be of the fixed head type with a partially glazed safety glass or perspex partition separating the passenger from the driver. https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C1TSNP_enJM694JM694&ei=mP... define "fixed head type" taxis UK http://www.maidstone.gov.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0003/1646... 14. BODY (i) The body must be of the ***fixed head type*** with a partially glazed partition separating the passenger from the driver. (ii) (a) Outside dimensions (1) The overall width of the vehicle exclusive of driving mirrors must not exceed 1.778 metres. (2) The overall length must not exceed 4.575 metres. (b) Inside dimensions of passenger’ compartment. (1) The vertical distance between the point of maximum deflection of the seat cushion when a passenger is seated to the roof immediately above the point must not be less than 96.5 centimetres (2) The width across the rear seat cushion must not be less than 1.7 metres. PDF]Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Vehicle Specifications https://my.northtyneside.gov.uk/.../VEHICLE Spec 04.pdf The vehicle shall be right hand drive with a fixed head type body. 4. The vehicle shall be capable of carrying in reasonable comfort at least four passengers. =================================== This is misleading and in this case, I do not think "fixed-head type" would translate to a "coupé". https://www.motorpasion.com/revision/tipos-carroceria-para-c... Cabrio, diminutivo de Cabriolet, es un termino de origen francés (era un carruaje de dos ruedas, dos plazas y con capota amovible). Son habitualmente de dos puertas y con puertas sin marcos para las lunas (aunque los hay con marcos, como los BMW Serie 3 Cabrio Baur, y de cuatro puertas, como el Lincoln Continental). También se les conoce como descapotables y, en los países anglosajones, como convertibles. http://www.wordmagicsoft.com/diccionario/en-es/fixed-head co... Traducir "fixed-head coupé" a Español: cupé de dos puertas Sinónimos en Inglés de "fixed-head coupé": two-door coupe -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 7 hrs (2019-04-21 16:29:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- César: John is right. I went in search of "fixed head" again, and found it means "hard top": Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Licensing Policy - Durham County ... https://www.durham.gov.uk/.../HackneyCarriagePrivateHireLice... 12 may. 2011 - Wheelchair Users to Taxis and Private Hire Vehicles. .... annual, six monthly, re-tests and third party inspections e.g. DVSA) or in .... checked for compliance with British regulations under the Single Vehicle. Approval ..... The vehicle shall be right-hand drive and the body must be a fixed head type (hard top). The vehicle shall be right-hand drive and the body must be a fixed head type (hard top). In other words, just for clarity, I would probably say (absolutely no convertibles are permitted). It took me a while to ascertain what was really meant by fixed head type. So, yes, I would go with John's idea(s). The other proposals are not correct! |
