Since you tagged this with ASP.NET, I thought I'd mention that default.aspx acts like index.html in that you can just point to the parent directory and the default.aspx page in that directory will automatically be used.

if you are using apache look up mod rewrite
redirect all requests to a base page and build your pages from there
abc.com/car/toyota/2
you would split the string type = car make = toyota page = 2 and use those values to build your page
*****************************************************
if you are using static html pages you can do it crudely
you could use a folder for each page and put an index.html inside it
eg the file cars.html could be stored as /cars/index.html
when abc.com/cars is requseted it will show /cars/index.html with a clean URL

I thought I might also add if you directory index is "index.html" (i.e when you type www.yourdomain.com you end up looking at http://www.yourdomain.com/index.html) then you can also achieve the same thing with sub folders.
eg:
www.yourdomain.com/yourfolder
www.yourdomain.com/yourfolder/index.html
should be the same location.
On IIS I believe the default directory index is default.html instead of index.html
