Hi, please help me with these words.

0I was doing this piece of translation, in which there is this sentence, "The most important product lines were power brake systems for trucks, buses, and automobiles; and automobile, truck, and bus frames."02br
02br
00My question is: why are truck, bus and automobile written in parallel as if they are three different things? isn't automobile the biggest in concept?0-
