World’s 1st Working Edible Car?

Now I’m pretty sure you didn’t think that would be possible?

Well, you’re right. You’d probably end up with one mighty tummy ache if you go and treat this car as a delicacy. But heck, I think they’ve gotten pretty close to actually doing it.

Introducing the world’s first car made out of parts with vegetables in them. 

bio-car

Yes, you read it right! This race car has a body made up of a composite that includes potatoes. Its steering wheel is crafted with carrots in it. And the driver’s seat has soybean and fiber integrated with it.

To top that up, this thing runs on chocolate.  And its estimated that this car can go up to 145mph! Now what else can you ask for?  :-)

This craft is the brainchild of scientists at the University of Warwick in England. The “ecoF3” racing car, was constructed to Formula 3 specifications for size, weight and performance. The inventors contend that it’s the fastest ever made to run solely on biofuels. A team spokesman said they are hoping that people get convinced that an environmentally friendly car is not necessarily a slow car.

Unfortunately, the car isn’t legal to race in the F3 series since chocolate-based fuel is currently not included as an approved energy source for the racing organization.

    so it’s not really edible? because food is integrated with other materials and not solely made of vegetable.
