The autonomous vehicle uses a sensor Lidarone sterocam and a cost map to know what direction he should go. Its maximum speed is only 56 km/h, but it still keeps the 999 cc engine with 114 hp power.
Also, as it has no cabin, it can safely transport more than 450 kg in its payload. This means that it can be equipped with all types of equipment needed.
