Why could it be argued that the purchase of a car can satisfy more than one of Maslow's needs?

A car purchase has the ability to satisfy an individual's belongingness and ego needs. More specifically, the purchase of a car can increase an individual's self-esteem and sense of achievement (ego needs), especially when buying a luxury car like a Mercedes. It can also help consumers to gain acceptance from others, especially from people that also have similar cars (belongingness needs). Note, the student could also argue that a car purchase could also indirectly satisfy safety and physiological needs if they are using for work to acquire income for shelter and food.
