Biome

Mercedes-Benz's new ecological mid-engine concept car which is an ultralight vehicle that utilises technologies from nature to achieve efficiency and integration into the ecosystem.

The futuristic Biome was featured in the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show Design Challenge. Speculation has that it may be on sale in 2015. The California design team has stated that some elements in the design could easily be developed for production. They just have to make sure that it would either not be too limited and do-able without significant changes.
