What does .car stand for in iOS? Compiled Asset (______)..?

I'm reading this tutorial and I know that your basic asset catalog (Assets.xcassets) in your project gets packaged/bundled and the outcome is an assets.car file. Everywhere I look I see 'compiled assets' but I don't see what the 'r' stands for.

Many file extensions of the form ?ar are some sort of "archive". Examples include tar, rar, ear, and jar. car is most likely "compiled asset archive".
