InformalWhat is a "beater"?
A beater is an old or worn-out car that may not look great but still functions for basic transportation. These cars are often inexpensive, and while they may have cosmetic damage or mechanical issues, they are typically still drivable. People often drive beater cars when they do not want to invest much money into a vehicle, or when they need a backup car for everyday use. While a beater may not be flashy or in perfect condition, it can serve its purpose reliably for those on a budget.
a shoe worn regularly and roughly, often getting dirty or scuffed
