What is generally not assigned to specially constructed vehicles?

Specially constructed vehicles typically do not have a model name assigned to them because they are not produced by a specific manufacturer or are custom-built rather than mass-produced. In these cases, the vehicles may not conform to the standard classifications that conventional vehicles have, which usually include a defined model name that identifies specific features or functions of the vehicle.

On the other hand, specially constructed vehicles can still be assigned a make, which often refers to the manufacturer of components or the vehicle's general identity. They are also issued a VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), which is essential for registration and tracking, and they may have a weight rating based on their construction and components, which is important for safety and regulatory compliance. Thus, the absence of a model name is the distinct characteristic of specially constructed vehicles in the context of vehicle classifications.
