The Mercedes-Benz Biome

In the game "Asphalt 8: Airborne", a new car, the Mercedes-Benz Biome, was introduced about 6-8 months back. When I saw it for the first time I thought that it was one of those concept cars which would never go into production and probably too ambitious a project
to work upon. But, as I gathered more information about this car, I realised that though this was an ambitious car to make it was not impossible to make it and introduce it to the market.
So, why I thought it was too ambitious a car to make, was because this car would be born from a seed! I want to emphasize on the part that it would be 'born from a seed' . The scientists at Mercedes-Benz are devising ways to create the biome car from a seed. The car, in their specially crafted production units will be grown systematically and the end product will be car which is bio-degradable, emits oxygen, and has a body made from a special fiber called The BioFiber. The car would also run on a fuel called the BioNectar4534, a special fuel which would not emit any harmful gas. Both, the fiber and the fuel are currently non- existing but it will be available in the future.
The Biome
The roof of the car is made from transparent organic solar cells. Further the car is eco-friendly from the beginning to the the end. This means that that once you are done with the car, you can just let it have its own "natural" end. The only thing that has not been thought out till now is how the car will refuel. But that is a minor impediment in front of all the advantages it provides. Check out this video to have a better outlook.
