      COMM 16. 重，載重車、輜重車的通稱，用來載物，并可作臥車。

      重車因其用途、形制的不同而有不同的名稱。

      棧車，一種是士人所乘簡易車，不可臥；另一種是役車，裝載雜物的簡易臥車。

      ?? 車，西周後期已出現，上古是華美的車，也可作喪車用，漢代起主要作帝王或重要柱臣的高級喪車, 遂易其名為 “?? 輬 ” 。

      兩種車均可臥死人，基本形制是：多輪，人牽挽，輿箱方而大，頂蓋及四周封閉，但有門窗可開合調溫；其式樣也多。

      輜車，頂部有捲篷，還有後轅以延伸堆物，可以載物與臥人。

      軿車，頂部與四周都障蔽，只留前面供上下車，無後轅，是供貴婦人坐臥的專車。
