Chinese company Baidu has introduced an electric truck DeepWay Xingtu which will be a competitor to Tesla trucks. The truck is equipped with an autonomous system level 4, which could make it able to drive independently in the future, without a driver.

This technologically advanced truck, which stands out in appearance compared to the current offer, has a pronounced rounded design, hidden rear wheels and minimized height, which gives it a look very similar to modern trains. The truck was designed by Pininfarina.

The truck has a 450 kWh battery set that allows a range of 187 miles (300 km). It only takes an hour to fully charge the batteries. It is equipped with 11 cameras, an infrared sensor, five radars and one LiDAR.

Inside, the truck is equally impressive. In front of the driver is a digital cockpit that extends the entire length. Additional screens are placed in the door handles and A-brackets, and a separate screen is placed above the windshield, while the rear seat is similar to those in the car.

Baidu did not say whether and when the production of the truck will start, because the development is still ongoing.
