The company and its product are both named 18 Wheels. Unlike its counterparts with tracks or large pneumatic tires, this design from Finland uses 18 small solid wheels, each of which is independently powered with its own motor on flexible suspension arms. Together, they’re able to traverse high obstacles, including ones 8 inches high without losing speed.

The designers mean for it to be environmentally friendly, which is why the unit is made of recycled materials and electrically powered.
18 Wheels unveiled its prototype last year and, according to this video, had planned to demonstrate an improved model this summer.
