Buses and trucks will remain almost the same on the outside, but they will change a lot on the inside. In the sense that their engines will increasingly look to energy sources other than fossil ones. This is according to the words of Alberto Curnis, researcher at the Polytechnic of Milan.
The game could therefore be played by liquefied biomethane, vegetable-derived or recycled oils, but also hydrogen produced thanks to energy from renewable sources. To complete the scenario, it
development of electrically powered vehicles. The optimization of space and design could also play a fundamental role, since increasing the loading capacity of trucks implies fewer vehicles on the roads for the same amount of goods transported. This is evidence that has already been seen in sea transport, with gigantic container ships which, thanks to their large volumetric capacities, pollute less per ton of goods transported than other smaller ones.
