Several companies have begun experimenting with the use of autonomous trucks and Volvo Trucks is changing the way the self-driving trucks are perceived with an innovative design by the name of Vera. This newest autonomous truck from Volvo is designed to transport goods around a port terminal in Sweden and it sets itself apart with a sports car-style cab design. Tha autonomous vehicle is capable of efficiently navigating a pre-set route and its job will be to carry shipping containers between a logistics center and the terminal.
Vera boasts a futuristic aesthetic that clearly differentiates itself from other autonomous trucks. As the autonomous truck has no need for a traditional cab design containing a seat for a driver, Vera makes the most of this with its low profile.
