Rail delivers cars made in Mexico
The new intermodal solution will offer a cost-effective, fast-transit, and sustainable option for manufacturers in Mexico. DP Word will launch the service on 1 June 2024.
Finished vehicles are loaded into 53-foot intermodal containers directly at the factories in Mexico or at designated stuffing yards close to the manufacturing hubs. The containers are then trucked to intermodal rail ramps and moved by rail to destinations like Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit (all in the USA), and in Toronto (Canada). Upon arrival, the containers are trucked from the rail ramp to designated yards where the cars are unloaded and trucked to the dealerships. Door-to-door transits range from eight to 14 days. (ben)
