Etymology

The term 'cabriolet' originates from the French word 'cabriolet', which referred to a light two-wheeled carriage pulled by a horse. The name comes from the verb 'cabroler', meaning 'to jump', which reflects the lively nature of the carriage. The cabriolet was a popular mode of transportation in the 18th and 19th centuries and later evolved with the development of the automobile. By the early 20th century, 'cabriolet' began to be used to describe automobiles with retractable roofs, marking a shift from horse-drawn carriages to motor vehicles. This evolution signifies changes in transportation methods and reflects the growing preference for open-top driving experiences.
