How do you say "I have a car" in Chinese?

I have come up with:

我有车

But I've seen variations of the sentence and of how to say "car". For example, I've seen:

我有辆车

我有一辆车

我有汽车

So I'm a little bit confused. First, if you want to express just the word "car", is it:

车 or is it 汽车? or something else entirely?

And second, I read that 辆 is a word that acts as a counter for things like cars, so my other question is if this is correct, and if so, do you have to use it, if so, do you need to add 一辆 or can you just say 辆

exactly speaking, it should be translated to "我有辆小汽车". I think "车" in Chinese corresponds to "vehicle" in English. "我有辆车" and "我有一辆车" are same means. they should be translated to "I have a vehicle" seriously. Even if it is "我有辆汽车", it could be "truck" or "bus" or bigger vehicles what you want too. it's only two different kinds of cultural expression. to "辆" and "一辆", if you express "quantity" only, and they are same means in this situation.
