Vehicles (and bikes) can't 'receive the benefits of cover' from area terrain or obstacles (so can't benefit from Light or Heavy cover).

They can benefit from the -1 to hit from dense cover, if the attacking model is drawing a line through the terrain and isn't actually in it (or are within 3" of a dense cover obstacle, and its the only dense cover they're drawing lines through)

Thank you for this information. One further question:

"They can benefit from the -1 to hit from dense cover if the attacking model is drawing a line through the terrain and isn't actually in it..."You mean that the firing unit isn't in the same cover right? Otherwise it reads that vehicles can get -1 To Hit via dense cover as long they are not in the dense cover, which wouldn't make any sense.

Vehicles would still be hidden from sight by an obscuring piece of terrain or protected by dense terrain if you have to draw the line through any piece of terrain with those traits, ignoring the ones the attacking model is touching.
