I learned from a German hands-on video [0] on the Mercedes truck that there’s already a law that allows for up to 90 cm long noses for aerodynamic design [1]. But it seems no manufacturer has a model making use of that yet. I don’t think we will see a US style truck design though. If you want to deliver to any European city, the US it’s simply not feasible to go longer.
