Unveiled at the WIRED 2016 conference in London, Denis Sverdlov, CEO of Roborace and Charge said the truck will be built in 2017. It can be built in four hours by just one person, Sverdlov added, and this means 10 men, over two shifts a day could assemble 10,000 trucks a year.

For the first 100 miles the truck travels, it produces 'zero emissions,' the company claims. "For longer journeys, a dual mode can be used to ‘top up’ the battery and extend the range to 500 miles". The trucks will be built at a series of new factories in Oxfordshire over the next few years.
