Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

TRAILERS is set to unveil its first car transporter semi-trailer at the CV Show next week. It claims the trailer is more fuel efficient and quicker to load and unload than drawbar configurations on the market because of its decreased vehicle capacity.

The decks on the trailer, fixed at the bottom but incorporating two hydraulically adjustable lifting decks, are designed to carry a payload of eight standard-sized cars or six SUV-sized vehicles. MD Mark Cuskeran said the 13.6m Autoliner is more fuel efficient because it doesn't incorporate a vehicle hanging over the front of the cab: "There's a real interest in moving towards semitrailers for vehicle transportation. The operational flexibility they provide is a big plus. The loading and unloading times are much faster with a semi-trailer and a dedicated tractor unit or driver isn't required."
