Hyundai QarmaQ Concept
Last but not least on the Geneva Auto Show’s green concept car roll-out is the Hyundai QarmaQ. It’s one of the cooler concepts out there for its sheer audacity to really try some new things. Case in point, its use of recycled PET plastic bottles to create most of the vehicle’s skin.
GE says the use of plastics, instead of more traditional metal and glass, gives the vehicle a 130-pound weight savings. That weight loss equates to 20 gallons a year savings in gas, not to mention fewer plastic bottles clogging up the local landfill. These numbers are nothing to scoff when you think of all the cars on the road.
Wow.

Comments are sorta kinda broken right now. We're working on it but to save energy can only work in daytime when solar system is at peak performance.
