The first truck was designed as a fully autonomous shipping vehicle, something that will likely put many in the transportation industry out of work in the coming years. The second black and red vehicle was designed as a show truck for Audi Trucks, and its jet pilot cockpit is the clear giveaway of this intended use. Artem Smirnov and Vladimir Panchenko are the designers behind this project, and it is reshaping what people think of in terms of ugly semis.
Above, you can see the cockpit of the show truck that the duo designed, and it features the drivers wearing fighter jet style helmets who’s only obvious use is to keep the bugs out of their faces. The most important thing to note about these trucks is that, unfortunately, they are just designs at the moment. It seems unlikely that Audi will move forward with building them, but if they continue to get the uproar that they are, we might soon see one on the road.
