Designers envision future autonomous trucks for Audi

For their project, designer Artem Smirnov and digital modeler Vladimir Panchenko have come up with two different proposals: an electric truck conceived for highway autonomous driving and an extreme show truck concept.

The first truck concept, designed for long distance transport

Ultimately they decided to develop both the ideas which have turned out to be high quality concepts, each with a different yet consistent design language.

The second concept is an extreme, futuristic show truck

The so-called Plan A uses a surface treatment made of razor-sharp edges and almost flat surfaces, which combined with the curved front end volume contribute to a distinctive, industrial-inspired look.

The Plan B concept, on the other end, is characterized by an organic surfacing, with clean, curved shapes that seem to effortlessly flow into each other.

The look is enhanced by the extreme proportions and the sleek graphics, which mixes industrial and racing elements.
