Tal vez sea mejor "carriage box", es la cobertura externa del vehículo.

Para explicarlo mejor, les recuerdo que esta situación ocurre en todos los vehículos de transporte de pasajeros, como autobuses, coches de tren de pasajeros, incluso aviones. Busqué un sinónimo de lo que en portugués llamamos "carrocería" y en inglés encontré "bodywork", pero tengo dudas de que esto sea adecuado.
