Increasing Usage of Finished Vehicle Logistic Services
With the increase in vehicle production, logistics service providers are focusing on developing better automotive logistics operations. Thus, the logistics service providers are implementing finished vehicle logistics (FVL) services to manage logistics operations better. FVL operations help gain real-time vehicle location data and analytics, obtain complete control over vehicle movement for logistics service providers, and reduce cost & errors linked with legacy technologies, including manual scanning & radio-frequency identification (RFID). Rhenus Group (a leading logistics service provider) observed a significant decline in 2020 due to COVID-19 impact on the decline in automobile production. The company implemented FVL and automotive logistics services from 2021.
In its first six months of implementation of FVL services, it transported 86 high-performance vehicles in Europe, as per the article published by the Rhenus Group in November 2021. Thereby, utilizing a mixture of air, sea, and road transportation, the FVL solution from Rhenus Group provided a better logistics service to vehicle dealers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Hence, the increasing usage of FVL services is driving the market growth of the automotive logistics market.
