A few weeks back I wrote about an upcoming car that was to be made of cannabis. At the time the car hadn't been revealed, but now the Motive Industries Kestrel has come out of hiding for all the world to see.
The Motive Industries Kestrel is set to be the first production car made out of cannabis. To clarify, the exterior is being made out of cannabis to both lower the car's weight and to make it eco-friendly. The Kestrel is a three-door hatchback with styling similar to a Scion Xa. Be sure to check out the gallery above, and click on the links to learn more about the Kestrel.
Compact Cannabis Cars (UPDATE)
The Motive Industries Kestrel is Pint-Sized and Green
