car transporter

Multi-deck auto mover

A car transporter is a large truck or trailer designed to haul multiple vehicles simultaneously, typically seen carrying new cars from factories to dealerships or moving vehicles for shipping companies.

The distinctive multi-level design allows transporters to stack cars on two or more decks, maximizing capacity.
