in or on??

I read this sentence "When you're the smallest person on a completely packed car" but is that the correct way or is it "When you're the smallest person in a completely packed car" because you are inside the car not on it

If people are travelling by car in the normal way, it should be "in". "on" is used for trains, buses, planes, ships.
