Not sure what to make of it. For me it's something between the family snapshot (and I guess that that was the original intention of the shot), a car ad and something else I can't put my finger on.
The car certainly is a prominent element of the shot and I do like the low angle that you took on this. For a car ad, though, the people are not posh enough. For the family snapshot it is a bit "too good" (though there is nothing holding family snapshots from being good photos). There certainly is some mist/fog/cloud in this shot and not having been to Greece I would hazard a guess that this would be a rare sight in sizzling hot July. For a nature documentation, though, the car is too prominent.
On composition, the two figures should have been placed a little bit away from the car, I think.
