GM’s innovative Hummer O2 concept took home first place in the LA Auto Show’s “Design Challenge”. This concept features “individual fuel cell powered hydraulic motors (built into each wheel), a phototropic body shell that produces pure oxygen throughout the life of the vehicle, and algae-filled body panels that transform carbon dioxide into pure oxygen.” One more picture after the jump.
Yes, you read that right: this Hummer-branded vehicle, made of 100% post-consumer recycled materials, pulls double-duty as a mobile algae cultivation farm, whose photosynthetic waste provides oxygen for both the O2 itself and the surrounding environment
