What Crew Members Say About Hoegh-Tracer

Auckland is set to welcome the world's largest car carrier, the Hoegh Trigger, on its inaugural voyage this Monday. This remarkable vessel, owned by Norway-based Hoegh Autoliners, boasts an impressive capacity of transporting up to 8,500 vehicles—1,000 more than the previous models in the fleet. According to a representative from Hoegh Autoliners, the Hoegh Trigger is one of six enhanced ships currently under construction, all of which are slated to make regular visits to Auckland on a bi-weekly schedule. While the Hoegh Trigger doesn't surpass its predecessors in length, it excels in height and width, providing a deck area comparable to ten football fields. This new addition heralds an exciting time for maritime logistics and vehicle transportation in New Zealand.
