Bamboo Car is the eco-friendly BamGoo
How eco-conscious are you? Electric cars are increasing in popularity but if you want something, well, a little different, perhaps the BamGoo is for you…
Researchers at Kyoto University displayed an electric car made almost entirely out of bamboo. As one of the fastest growing materials available, bamboo helps to make this car super eco-friendly.
The single-seat “BamGoo” weighs about 130 pounds, but can only run about 30 miles on a charge.
I’m not totally “sure” about the design. Well, its not going to keep out the rain in London. But at least there aren’t any panda’s here!

It’s a concept car genius- aimed to illustrate how cheap, affordable renewable cars are also suitable for the world’s poor and developing nations- instead of being slaves to the US and their multinationals
The body styling is entirely up to the individual.
Bamboo has higher tensile strength than steel.
