Definizione & Spiegazione
A vehicle terminal (car terminal) is a port facility designed for the handling, interim storage and technical processing of finished vehicles. Alongside extensive parking areas it typically offers a workshop, a wash facility, a paint shop and, increasingly, charging infrastructure for electric vehicles: cars are prepared for delivery there rather than merely parked. Unlike a ro-ro terminal, which is defined by the handling method (driving on and off via ramps), the term vehicle terminal describes specialisation in vehicles as a cargo type — a vehicle terminal normally works by the ro-ro method, whereas a ro-ro terminal does not necessarily handle vehicles. For vehicle forwarders, the decisive question is how many processing steps are performed at the terminal itself, since this saves pre- and on-carriage.
