This is half the contents of the highest technological level. Or refer someone quickly: on-board generation of renewable energy, energy recovery, architecture, high energy efficiency, reduction of resistance to motion.

Iveco Glider uses high-efficiency solar panels and high formability to generate renewable energy on board. The panels cover an area of about 2mq on the roof of the cabin, subject to the continuous washing by aerodynamic flow, ensuring maximum efficiency and energy production up to 2 kWh.

The truck world's longest

What are the longest truck in the world? Until recently I would go with a sure answer "road trains" in Australia. Wrong. Apparently the trucks operating the world's longest (we do not consider the attempts of records) are located in Brazil. Immortalized in the video carries 10 cars and is used for transporting sugar cane.

In the second part of the post compared with the measures of road trains: only 53.5 meters in length. There is no comparison right? Of course, if you find more long, post the link in the comments!
