The Mercedes-Benz RECY concept was an entrant in the 2006
LA Design Challenge which was based around the idea of
environmentally friendly vehicles.
Recyclable wood, glass, alloys, and rubber could be used
in the roadsters construction. To keep the occupants safe
a high-strength frame and laminated wood shell are incorporated
into the RECY's design.
The Mercedes-Benz RECY's design was inspired by Riva hand-crafted
wooden yachts and high class eyewear.
The Mercedes-Benz RECY concept is 100% recyclable and
created from sustainable resources, the RECY can be a
continually renewable vehicle. Constantly "recycling
itself", the high strength RECY frame would allow
owners to maintain that portion of the vehicle while replacing
those panels that may be damaged.
Powering the Mercedes-Benz RECY is a four-cylinder Blu-Tec
biodiesel engine.
