At this year's Los Angeles Design Challenge, the designers from the Mercedes-Benz Advanced Design Studios in Carlsbad, CA, surprised everyone with a revolutionary vision.
Taking their inspiration from nature, they designed a vehicle which is fully integrated into the ecosystem, from the moment of its creation through to the end of its service life.
The Mercedes-Benz BIOME would grow in a completely organic environment from seeds sown in a nursery. Out on the road the car emits pure oxygen, and at the end of its lifespan it can be simply composted or used as building material.
