I'll admit I exercise have a tendency to speak in hyperbole, but this time I'm making an exception only because Hyundai'due south truck shows 'truckloads' of promise. I'thou talking clean energy-called-for, hydrogen-fuel-cell powered, autonomous driving, zero emissions, zero racket semi-truck with an ergonomic design that looks splendid from the exterior and provides a stunning panoramic view on the within. I honey my cushy desk-bound-chore, but damn, if I had a hazard to be a trucker with a Hyundai HDC-6 Neptune, I'd probably give information technology all upward in a heartbeat.

Inspired by the aesthetic of the 1936 Mercury Train, Hyundai'due south latest semi concept channels the fine art-deco beauty of the auto, giving it a suitable revival in the form of a sufficiently avant-garde truck capable of wowing people. The HDC-6 Neptune relooks the semi-truck typology by redesigning it around Hyundai'southward zero-emission fuel-cell engineering science. The truck features a panoramic cockpit with a skylight that offers an incredible amount of sunlight during the twenty-four hour period, giving the interiors a rather glamping-inspired touch. The truck comes with democratic driving capabilities, allowing the driver to kick back and watch movies on a HUD congenital right into the truck'south windshield, or accept relaxation to another level with the shape-shifting cabin that comes with 2 levels. Every bit impressive as the insides are (plenty to make me consider switching jobs), the exterior is just every bit wowing. The truck's drinking glass tiptop is counterbalanced with a seamless grille at the base that runs from finish to end, helping with cooling. The truck uses hydrogen fuel technology that burns to release water-vapor, making the truck have zero emissions, while its bullet-shaped streamlined design helps improve fuel economy… and the red on the cake is definitely those shape-shifting rims on the wheels that help further air-intake!
