The Mini BioMoke concept envisions a kit car format that would allow users to choose their alternative-fuel powertrain of choice, and allow mechanical components from previous generations of automobiles to be reused.



According to the studio, BMW Group DesignworksUSA, the “some assembly required” format is a nod to Southern California’s hot-rodding culture and the recent resurgence of pre-fabricated homes.



The body is constructed from a single sheet of biodegradable sandwich panel implanted with palm tree seeds, so that it can actually be planted, composting to grow trees and “cleaning the air previous generations of automobiles have polluted,” according to a statement from the studio.

If let sit in the rain for long periods of time will it start growing roots the sort of like how a potato does? Just food for thought.... [;)]

That is pretty cool and very innovative thinking.....
