Title of Invention

VEHICLE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Abstract An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle distribution system that establishes a range of search beforehand and, in distributing vehicles, predicts ride demands and the number of vehicles within that range. [Means for Achieving the object] A predetermined number of vehicles 4 are deployed at ports P11 through P5 within an area. Each terminal 2 notifies a host 1 of an existing vehicle count, ride demands, commands, destination information and arriving information at the port. The host 1 has predicted ride demand data stored in a memory 11. Given a predetermined range of search, the host 1 computes for each port a surplus or a shortage of vehicles based on the predicted ride demand data and the information entered through the terminal 2. On the basis of the computed results, the host 1 moves (redistributes) vehicles from a port having excess vehicles to a port lacking vehicles.
