Who made Jetto's truck? I know that it was a German maker but i can't recall the name. Pretty futuristic

The Company's name is "Steinwinter" and the truck was initially planned to "trick out" european limits for the overall length of tractor/trailer combinations, by sliding the cabin compartment UNDER the trailer. Nice idea, but never worked out, since the regulations were changed shortly after.
Just to get the idea:

(and yes, the cargo compartment is mounted ON the truck.)
After all, I'm not so sure that Jetto's truck really was a Steinwinter. IMHO the producers just borrowed the idea and modified a plane hauler.
