This is weird. A car
whose body is made from an organic compound that is supposedly stronger
than steel, is powered by that same organic compound and emits only
oxygen. It’s the Mercedes-Benz Biome symbiosis vehicle. It was designed
originally for the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show and had to follow a brief
of being a sporty-yet-green car that weighed under 1,000 pounds. This
one tips the scales at 875.5 pounds. At the end of its operational life,
it can be composted or used for building materials. Another wacky
concept, right? Except for two things. One, the chemistry actually
exists to make this happen and, two, Mercedes is rumored to be producing
this thing for 2015, or something based on the design, in response to
BMW’s Vision Efficient Dynamics diesel hybrid concept, although it’s not
clear what kind of drivetrain it will have. It’s a funny old world.
