Cable cars are technically cars 🤔
They are technically trains*, if you don't want to consider them their own thing. There are plenty of languages where the name doesn't contain "car" if that's your metric.
*or elevators I guess
I was just joking but yeah maybe we need a different name for them in English. Wikipedia says Cable Tram? That works seems a bit awkward to me though.
How 'bout just 'Tram' for the on ground on and 'Air Tram' for the suspended ones? This making Motor Tram the non-cable variant.
