A closer look and ridealong in a truck that can drive itself.
********
Not all trucks are built equal, some don't even need a driver. Introducing, the Farizon Homtruck - the only truck in the world to elegantly combine the comfort of home with next-generation autonomous technology and a combination of new energy drivetrains. It's the latest product from Geely's commercial vehicle brand to be destined for European sales after the Farizon SuperVAN, and it looks set to shake up the market with a product offering like no other. Join us as we take a look at both the Homtruck and the Homtruck Cabless, to see exactly what's in store.

Hello my Friend Well I'm quite amazed by this video, firstly that truck does look like Optimus Prime especially if you could get a Red one. And they seem to have thought everything, look out Tesla Semi 🚛 wow. The quality fit and finish looks A1 . And then I was stunned at the Cabless Truck they are going to rule the world on an Automotive scale , it's going to be like an Avalanche,. Thank you for this great video you lucky man in Ev and Technology Heaven 🙏🙏 John in Melbourne

Trouble is everything in U$ and EU are so politicized, they might label all chinese EVs as national security threats. They refused to work together yet don't have the innovative capacity nor the money to go to next level development, but would rather pour all the time and resources into conflicts and wars. Nevermind that they don't want to work with the chinese, they are so nefarious they would go all the way out to destroy and smear all things chinese.

@philmarwood69 4 ай бұрын

The driver wouldn't give it full pedal with no trailer on the back, EVs give 100% torque from the start and the drive wheels would just spin, or it may have load sensors which wouldnt allow him full torque and horsepower. It needs a bigger fridge with a freezer box, I've watched youtube videos about Chinese truckers and they tend to cook in the truck rather than buy a meal. As for their diesel truck emmisions, they are very very high so i doubt they are using a DEF system ? Still its a great truck, longer wheelbase than you could use in the UK but that allows for bigger batteries ! A big step in the right direction !

@InsideChinaAuto 4 ай бұрын

Great comment Phil. That's the kind of context I wouldn't know about not being a trucker but makes plenty of sense. Surprised about the wheelbase because they're planning on coming to Europe, so was that based on a real number or from observation of the larger cab option?

@philmarwood69 4 ай бұрын

@@InsideChinaAuto Just an observation, I was a trucker in the UK till I was 40 then I moved to Canada. They'll likely shorten the chassis but that will likely affect the battery size and range ? It will be interesting to see how they achieve compliance on that issue for the EU.

There was one in the concept, didn't seem to have made it to the production version, but there are still plans I believe for a super luxury version that would likely have it. There's room under the rear bench for a port-a-potty though if needed like in a caravan.

@InsideChinaAuto 5 ай бұрын

Legal hurdles depend on lobbies and governments. There are far fewer lobbies in China and a government far more motivated to advance their technology and industries, so it'll likely happen here first. Too many people fighting over small things and preventing change in the West.

It's an interesting point, but bear in mind the trailers themselves aren't yet built with a large overhang at the front so can only come so far into the truck body itself. Maybe that will change if we get to full use of these but those trailers will still likely end up connected to a standard type truck at did point.

@@InsideChinaAuto Charging time must include the wait time at the charging station. EV charging stations are not enough for cars and very few stations for Big Trucks.
