And is there a standard length, and by extension, a standard range of weights for passenger cars across the world, or do passenger cars differ greatly?

British and European passenger cars are under 70 feet long, IIRC. But American passenger cars are 85-89 feet long, and I believe they're a lot heavier too, both overall and per passenger.
