Here are the main types of car carriers:
* Open Car Carriers: These are the most common type, with the cars exposed to the elements. They usually have two levels with multiple rows of vehicles.
* Enclosed Car Carriers: These offer more protection from the elements and potential damage. They are typically used for transporting high-end or luxury vehicles.
* Flatbed Car Carriers: These are simpler carriers with a flatbed platform used for transporting a limited number of cars.
In addition to these, specialized carriers are also used for transporting:
* Heavy Duty Vehicles: These require specialized carriers with larger capacity and reinforced platforms.
* Electric Vehicles: These often require carriers equipped for transporting vehicles with large batteries.
No matter the type, all car carriers are designed to safely and efficiently transport new cars from the factory to dealerships and other destinations.
