Isn't motor_vehicle used for this? In my experience, the English term 
'motor vehicle' does not include sub-motorcycle vehicles, such as 
motorized bicycles. For example, Florida statutes define

MOTOR VEHICLE.—Any self-propelled vehicle not operated upon rails or 
guideway, but not including any bicycle, motorized scooter, electric 
personal assistive mobility device, or moped.

I guess the one difference between this and his change to motorcar is 
that the latter doesn't include motorcycles. But in the rare case that 
these are treated differently, one could use motor_vehicle=yes 
motorcycle=no.
