That is a (car shuttle) train. They are used all over the world, for example the Eurotunnel Shuttle. Not too different from driving your car onto a ferry to cross a river. It’s still a ferry even if you sit in your car.
I was under the impression that Elon Musk was planning a system where electric self-driving cars are used to do that autonomously?
