Cabriolet used in a sentence

Cabriolet in a sentence as a noun

Just my 2 cents: I've driven both a P85D and a 2014 Porsche 911 4S cabriolet fairly extensively.

This is one of the points of confusion for me. I didn't buy a cabriolet to take kids to and from school, to haul gear around or to beat some other kid in muscle car off the line.

Do you say “taxi cab”, or “taximeter cabriolet”?

You could have a Ford F150 or a Chevy Escalade here and it would still be a "car" , just like a car without roof is still a car but of a subtype "cabriolet".

Or, perhaps more relevant, a cabriolet top that retracts at the touch of a button at speeds up to 25 mph. If that makes sense to people - and it does - then solar cells on the bonnet and roof can easily be foisted onto the marketplace.

Xylakant covered most of it. But just to add: when you want to haul furniture you rent a proper truck, and when you want to go on a fishing trip with your buddies you rent a nice 4 wheel SUV, and when you want to go on a cross country road trip you rent a nice sedan or even a cabriolet if that is what you want, instead of every day driving to work in a too big and expensive car that kind of works ok for all of the above.
