The long-range, solar-powered Vision EQXX concept by Mercedez-Benz was recently revealed at CES 2022 and it represents the future of cars. From mushroom fibers and bamboo to cactus and vegan silk, this electric vehicle concept boasts what the brand calls "a surprising mix of sustainable materials."
This concept vehicle promises to set new standards for range and efficiency and it has the capacity to reach over 1,000 kilometres on a single battery charge. Thanks to the exterior design of the vehicle and its aerodynamic design, the Vision EQXX achieves a benchmark drag coefficient of 0.17.
This model for electric vehicles in the future sets itself apart with a lightweight design, battery innovations, eco-friendly materials, and 95% energy efficiency—which makes it three times more efficient than a car with a conventional internal combustion engine.
