Not only is this scooter made of steam-pressed bamboo instead of plastic, but in place of a gas tank, it has A TANK OF AIR:
The EcoMoto was an Australian industrial design student’s third-year design project “aimed at developing a concept motorbike built around a compressed air powered engine.” As Darby Bicheno explains in his deep Australian accent, the air-powered engine is quiet and capable, perfect for short city trips.
