The truck of tommoroow!!Autonomous!!


Mercedes-Benz Future Truck

Mercedes-Benz presents the "Future Truck 2025" as the world's first autonomously driving truck.
Its engine develops 330 kW (449 hp) and a maximum torque of 2200 newton metres. Power is transferred by the fully automated 12-speed Mercedes PowerShift 3 transmission, which is standard equipment.

Hard to believe?A truck drives along a motorway all by itself, at a speed of 80 km/h, communicating with its surroundings and ensuring more safety on the roads. It is based on intelligent networking of all the safety systems already available, plus cameras, radar sensors and vehicle-to-vehicle communication.

Benefit:
*saves its operator money
*relieves its driver of stress
*fatigue in monotonous traffic situations.

Despite increasing traffic density, investment in the infrastructure is in decline. Thus, are increasing cost pressure on transport operators and the already acute shortage of drivers. But, its has  an answer to all this ,safer,more efficinet,highly network and autonomous
