Return to the Design Contest in Los Angeles and let's look a moment on the proposal shifted Mercedes called Biome.
The Biome fully respects the subject of the challenge (designing a car less than 450 kg versatile for four people) with a sort of ultra-lightweight car that uses technology from nature to achieve unsurpassed efficiency and integration called "transparent" in the ecosystem.
The Mercedes design team based in California has created a vehicle emerging from a nursery Mercedes from two seeds princpales: a sip of the DNA of the brand to build the cabin and the other for the body. The wheels are "grown" with four separate single seeds.
The Biome collects the sun's energy and stores it in its "veins" in the form of a liquid called BioNectar4534. Mercedes unfortunately remains shy about using this "fuel" and the propulsion of the craft. We only know that the star vehicle develops a technology that will upgrade the trees by equipping receivers. These convert solar energy surplus BN4534.
