The conceptual 'Gruzovikus' freightliner truck is a [futuristic transportation solution](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-heavyduty-truck) designed by the Art Lebedev Studio to provide businesses with a way to seamlessly ship cargo in an efficient, [driver-free manner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-trucking-operation). The truck is characterized by its L-shaped design that doesn't feature a cockpit for a driver in favor of a slim sensor-packed front section that can navigate roadways all on its own. The vehicle doesn't require an operator within or even remotely to allow it to function completely on its own to further alleviate operators from needing to spend time monitoring it.

The 'Gruzovikus' freightliner truck is rounded off with a [fully electric design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evolv-elm-mobility) that will eliminate any emissions and help to keep roadways as well as city environments free from unnecessary pollution.
