It has exactly 18 wheels and will be available for a test drive by October this year.

With 18 Wheels, however, the company is being very literal about its first product's number of wheels. Strangely though, the prototype itself does not have a placeholder name or model number.On its website, 18 Wheels states that making ATVs sustainable is one of the pillars the company is based on. To do so, it has not just put an electric drive on the vehicle but has also built it entirely using recyclable materials.

The movement of the ATV is reminiscent of a millipede, with the only difference being the wheels being under the body and always trailing backward. We haven't seen a millipede on tiny wheels yet, so we can't confirm if the millipede would also move in a similar fashion. It can move over different types of terrain, such as soil and rocks, and even function as a small boat if the rider were to come across a pool of water. It will definitely be interesting to see what the ATV can do with even bigger obstacles. The next iteration is expected in October this year.
