Ute (vehicle)
A ute – an abbreviation for "utility" or "coupé utility" – is a term used originally in Australia and New Zealand to describe usually two-wheel-drive, traditionally monocoque design passenger vehicles with a cargo tray in the rear. In South Africa the term "bakkie" is generally used, although General Motors in that country now sells the Australian Holden in small numbers there and calls it a ute, while a small front-wheel drive Chevrolet pickup sourced from Brazil and sold in South Africa is called a utility. However, only General Motors uses this terminology.〔http://www.carsales.com.au/ute/〕
==Etymology==
While historically an Australian-designed "ute" has been a 2-door vehicle based on a passenger car chassis (such as the Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon), the term is also used in Australia and New Zealand to describe vehicles which would be called a pickup truck or truck in the rest of the world.〔http://www.caradvice.com.au/180980/dodge-ram-big-us-ute-set-australia/〕〔http://www.carsguide.com.au/news-and-reviews/buyers-guide/subaru_brumby_1984_1994_buyers_guide〕 Thus, it can be assumed that the term is a dialect for vehicles with a cargo well, rather than a specific definition for an automotive body style.
