transportation article (final assignment)

I chose the topic of transportation. i found an article about a Mercedes car completely grown from seeds. The Mercedes BIOME concept was made in 2010 but never made it to production yet. The car weighs less than 1000 pounds and can carry 4 people safely in comfort. The whole body is grown from a single seed and each of the four tires are grown from 4 more seeds . The interior is also grown from 2 additional seeds. Energy from the sun is stored in chemical bonds called BioNectar4534. Mercedes has also developed technology to retrofit trees with receptors to harvest their excess solar energy into BioNectar4534. The material the car is made of is called BioFibre, it is much lighter than metal or composites but stronger than steel when mature. It is grown in the Mercedes-Benz Nursery through proprietary DNA. The customer’s specific desires are genetically engineered into the Star (LOGO) and the vehicle grows when this combines with the Seed capsule.  All Mercedes-Benz Symbiosis vehicles are grown in an ecologically sustainable nursery, using primarily organic materials. Mercedes Benz Symbiosis vehicles release pure oxygen into the environment, helping urban areas to meet air quality standards. The interior of the vehicle is to have high quality textures to suit the individuality of the owner but are fully compostable.
