    A hydrofoil uses a wing under the waterline to create lift, while a hydroplane generates lift from the hydrodynamic qualities of the hull itself.

    So when a car's tires generate lift from their own hydrodynamic qualities and send the vehicle careening out of control we can also call that hydroplaning
