The Moon rover was developed by Boeing, in collaboration with NASA, for the Apollo missions. The first Moon rover, called the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV), was used during the Apollo 15 mission in 1971.
They flew it there aboard a spacecraft. The first spacecraft to launch a lunar rover was the Soviet Luna 17, towards the end of 1970. The first American lunar rover landed a year later by Apollo 15. I believe it was lowered to the surface via a folding ramp.
It was called the Lunar Rover.
The lunar rovers used on the moon were included in the lunar module, which carried them to the moon's surface. Once on the moon, the astronauts deployed the rovers to aid in their exploration of the lunar surface.
The Apollo 15 astronauts rode a lunar rover on the moon in 1971.
