The truck features new technologies and an aerodynamic design to decrease fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Our vision for the future is not that far away. Much of the technology in the Volvo Concept Truck 2020 is already available said in a statement by Volvo Trucks design director Rikard Orell.The new technologies will be an auto pilot system, managed through a wireless connection which can take a group of trucks across the European continent at speeds of about 90 km/h or 56 mph, figuring a road train that will make truck traffic more efficient on Europe which is already busy highways.
