Swedish commercial vehicle manufacturer Scania has showcased its cabless autonomous truck concept. The concept is based on the truck’s current model, which was introduced in 2014. While the AXL bucks the usual trend for electric AVs, instead featuring a combustion engine, Scania has stated that it will run on an undisclosed renewable biofuel. The innovative truck will be debuted with a live demo in Sodertalje, Sweden, on 2 October.
